[big snip] Based upon what MAU wrote, I turned off three features of BitDefender Antivirus Plus v10: Active (AV) scanning, anti-spyware and antispam. Then I shutdown and restarted TB. No problem! Then I turned on the Active (AV) scanning and the anti-spyware but left the antispam off. Bingo - no more problems now when either starting up TB or when shutting it down. Great!!!!! I don't need the antispam filter, anyway. Yahoo, Gmail and AOL all scan for spam, anyway. And I have the AntiSpam Sniper for TB running, besides. Thank you MAU - and all the rest of you who have posed such creative ideas about what the problem could be. So far, so good!
