It's part of Office. You'll find all the  answers here:

It's quite  normal and harmless.

Like us, as it gets older, your computer will get  slower. Possibly the 
shutdown message has always been there, but as your  computer ages and slows 
down, you now get time to partly see the message.  It's just XP doing its 
normal shutdown procedure, no need to worry unless  things slow down too 
much. It will then be time for regular cleanup and  restoration maintenance.

If you haven't reformatted the hard drive in 4  years, you're doing well if 
it's still performing reasonably.

Thanks, Don, but after  reading the above mentioned link, I do not have 
Office loaded on here  nor have I ever had it on here.  This just started  in the 
past  week. But since you said it's harmless, I wont worry about it then.   
Harriet.
