When I shut down windows XP Home, an error flag pops up and says "The Application Failed to Initialized because windows was shutting down", then, Windows shuts down in an orderly fashion. It is only considered as "Annoying" in that it does not affect the operation of windows in any way. When Windows in rebooted, it comes up normally and works well every time, but when "Shut Down" the annoying flag reappears, then windows shuts down normally. I can probably, and, have lived with this for months, but if anyone knows how I can get rid of this annoying flag, please let me know. Thanks.......Member USAFDON.

What program does it list as not initializing?
If the pop-up goes by too fast then it may also be logged in event viewer as an error.
Start > Run > eventvwr.msc
Then look under application or system for errors. Your problem could be spyware or virus related.
If you post a Hijackthis log it may be helpful to see if this is the case.

OP
Thanks American Zombie...I found the problem. Followed your directions and learned that I had a "System" problem..found that I had part of a recently deleted AOL program still active, was a .dll extension, deleted it and other residual AOL files that accompanied it and now the annoying flag that was present before "Shutdown" is gone. Thanks.......USAFDON.
