I have an old XP laptop, and it seems to take longer than it should for
the shutdown window to show up. I get this hourglass that sits there
for a while (couple minutes) before the the shutdown window opens up.

Is it just old, or is there a way to get it to shutdown quicker?


Kaspersky virus protection will cause this, among other delays.
