I am having problems shuttingoff my machine.When I click<start><shut down>the cursor appears on the wallpaper but it will not move.I then click<ctrl/alt/del>and it will tell me that the system is bsy.I have to click<ctrl/alt/del>again and then the system will RESTART(even tho restart was not clicked).Then,and only then,can I click<Start><Shut down>will it shut down.

What is happening?

Many thanks,

jere d.

Well it could be a fact that your cursor was not on the shut down so it could be that or you can have a virus thats making it so you cant shut down.
