message at shutdown

[Guest]

At shutdown I get a window with the message:
"you are not logged on as administrator"
and I must close the window for shutdown to complete.
I can't just click shutdown and leave my computer and it
doesn't seem to be a helpful message at shutdown.
Can I get rid of this message?

Hi Diane,

Download and run process explorer to see if you can isolate what is calling
for this, as it does not require admin privileges to shut down.

Hi Diane,

Next time you shutdown your computer, make sure that you have no other
applications running. When the window that you describe appears, bring up the
Task Manager using Ctrl, Shift and Esc. In the applications tab, you should
find this application listed. Right click on it and select 'Go To Process' in
the menu that appears. Make a note of the name that is highlighted. Close the
Task Manager. Reply to this post and remember to include the full name
(including extension) of the process that you noted above. Please ensure that
you post the EXACT spelling AND case.
