   Hi all:  Lately, when shutting down my computer running Winxp/home, the   
   shutdown routine halts and a window opens on the screen with a message that   
   says "This program is not responding", and that has a legend at the top   
   reading "End Program - sw"  There's a button at the bottom of the window   
   that says "End Now" which, if clicked, causes the window to close and the   
   shutdown routine to resume and conclude normally.  The computer has been   
   working properly for 2 years with no problems, and I haven't installed any   
   new software since long before this began to happen.  Also use spybot,   
   adaware and nortonAV, so I'm pretty sure it's not a virus or other unwelcome   
   intruder(s).  I did search at MS Knowledge Base for "End Program - sw", but   
   the phrase was not recognized and didn't get any hits.  I would appreciate   
   any advice and suggestions regarding probable cause of phenomenon described   
   above and what I should do to get rid of it.  Thanks for your replies!  PE
