View Full Version : Slow shutting down XP

My computer is 3 moths old. Recently, it takes very long
time to shut down almost like 1-2 minutes. It used to take
a few seconds.

1) How can I reduce the time?
2) Do I have to really worry that something is wrong with
it, or some one has set up something on my computer. I use
McAfee Anti-Virus. Computer came with Norton Anti-virus
program that ran for about 2 months.

Any help will be appreciated.

Do you have Logitech iTouch software installed? If so, removing that will
solve your problem (strange but true)
