Re: Windows hANGS while shutting down?

open up regedit and locate HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control. In there will be a entry called "WaitToKillService". Change the value to 0 and try to shutdown now. I had the same problem with avast! too...

Do you have Service Pak one installed? You should get it if you don't. You need a Legit Copy of Windows XP, or a legit CD key (or a key changer ) to install it though - I hope you paid for your Windows!
