I cleaned out a laptop with a bunch of infestations. I have got it clean and running a good antivirus software. The only problem I see is if you run the laptop for a while it take forever to shut down. Once you hit start and shutdown it takes 2 minutes for the turn off/restart buttons to appear. Then it take another two minutes to turn off. Is there a area I can check to speed this up. I did use msconfig and close allot of start up programs. Thanks

which antivirus are you running? do you have it set to do a startup/shutdown scan? if so try disabeling the shutdown scan

also you might want to take a trip through the malware forum to make sure you're completely clean
