I used to click Turn off Computer and had 3 choices. Log
Off, Shut Down or Restart. Now a box comes up with an
arrow to click to choose what to do. I have my computer
set for XP settings. Is there a way to get back the
orginal? Thank you

You see this type of dialog if you've disabled the Welcome Screen.

Control Panel, User Accounts, Change the way users log on and log off.

By the way, are you using Style XP, by any chance?
