The program will not initiate because windows is shutting down

[Guest]

Hello: Recently every time I shut-down my computer I get a message that says
"The program will not initiate because windows is shutting down". I've
tried uninstalling all recently installed programs, ran a virus scan and spy
ware remover. What Else can I do? How can I get rid of this message?
THANKS.

sounds unusual... it is supposed to come up when you start a program while
the computer is shutting down. Some programs execute other programs during
their normal running. It would appear that such a thing is happening on your
computer.

you could type "msconfig" into the run box in the start menu. you could try
a diagnostic startup and enable 5 programs from startup at a time to see
whats the problem

here is some more info on the utility

Good luck

Hello again: I found it. It's "Real One Media". So my next question (if I
may) is. How can I open real one media player without it inserting its self
into the Start-up program? THANK YOU again.

Some people get rid of "Real One" and use "Jet Audio" instead.
