My system is Win 98SE and I have been starting and shutting down
the computer daily for the past eight years. A few months ago the
computer would not shut down properly, and I believe the firewall
and anti virus programs were at fault. I now shut down these programs
individually before shutting down the rest of the system. Never
had a problem since.

Subject: My Gateway computer does not shut down properly
My Gateway computer, Intel 3, Windows 2000 Professional, Microsoft Office XP
Professional with Front Page does not shut down properly for the last 3 or
more weeks and I am forced to close it by pushing the power button to close
it. I use Ace Utilities, a registry program and have anti-virus & spyware
programs along with firewall. Please advise.
