I had cancelled the shut down before sending my message to the
list. Then after I sent it, I hit "shut down" and it poped up
immediately.
That sounds to me like you could increase caching of the icons.
==============begin copy==============
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer]
"IconUnderline"=hex(0):03,00,00,00
"Max Cached Icons"="6000"
=============end copy===============
Save out as Iconcach.reg & then launch to incorporate the settings
into your registry.
If I were you I'd use one of the many Xp Shutdown programs that have
been discussed many time before on the list instead. I like
http://grc.com/ GIZMO as it can control shutdown as well as screen
resolutions & power down your monitor. I would create a shortcut for
this on the desktop or start menu then you'll have many less clicks
to shut down your system. OBTW you system still may hang if it needs
to unload an app that you've been running which may or may not be
windows fault.
