Do you use Kazaa, josh?
I don't know the relation exactly, but I was suffering from very slow shutdowns when I bought my PC. So I called the techie and the first thing he asked me was whether I had installed Kazaa. And it was amazing how much the shutdown process got quicker after uninstalling it. But I still don't know why Kazaa was slowing my shutdown although it wasn't running :confused: probably its adware/spyware.

My shutdown has always been slowish under XP. You can make the process 'kill' times shorter but I find it affects my PC in other ways.
I just click the PC's power button and walk away. It always shutsdown eventually.
