Hmm......., http://tinyurl.com/8gu0 is only a link to the Microsoft page
on the Shutdown problem, anyway.
There doesn't seem to be anything new here. As I said earlier, the
Shutdown bug CAN sometimes be fixed quickly. But that's never been my
experience. And using the Microsoft patch\supplement MAY fix it, but if
it doesn't, it will compound the problem.
