WindowsFormsParkingWindow peventing PC from Turning Off

[Pete]

I installed IE7 a few weeks ago and around the same time I noticed
that when I 'TurnOff' my PC I get a message saying that
WindowsFormsParkingWindow can't close - End Now / Cancel

As just about every app. seems not to want to close, ages ago I
installed the fix from Kelly's Korner that forces the PC to shut
down.
However, when I get the WindowsFormsParkingWindow error, my PC sort-of
hangs. I can use the mouse to click on End Now, and whilst the error
window disappears, the PC freezes and the only option is to hit the
power button.

Any suggestions please?

Thanks
Pete

My daughters PC encountered the same symptom and error message. While
researching the problem I ran across this article, which provides some
insight into the error, and fortunately, in my case, a solution to it..

Here's the link:

Hope this helps.

Thanks Zman
Unfortunately I don't have the HP stuff on my PC, so it's not related
to that.
It seemed to start around the same time as I installed IE7.

Glad it worked for you though!

Best wishes
