I leave Outlook open all the time & when i shutdown the comptuer the End Take Dialog comes up saying that the program isnt responding (becuase outlook uses winword). But this end task dialog used to have a coutdown thing on it so after about 20 seconds it would automatcally End the Task & continue.. This dialog now just sits there waiting to be hit... Im guessing this is a registry setting... I tried Tweak XP's option of automatcally closing programs that time out but this will not display the end take dialog & just close the program. Does anyone know what is causing this because i would hate to have to reinstall just for this alone!
