wont shut down

[Phil Da Lick!]

Can anyone tell me why a couple of my windows xp boxes won't shut down? They
go through the process until the "windows is shutting down" screen and just
stop there. The annoying thing is that if you choose restart instead of turn
off then the machine does reboot at the right time.
