If you run Windows XP you’ve probably encountered the long wait for your computer shutdown. A few weeks ago my computer was taking several minutes to shutdown. Since I own Image for Windows I restored an image of my system from a previous date before all of the software bloat and registry clutter occurred. However, the tool below may help with XP shutdown problems.

User Profile Hive Cleanup Service is a program released by Microsoft to help with “slow log off and unreconciled profile problems”. IntelliAdmin has some more info if you’re interested. [HT: Paul Stamatiou]
