Make sure Internet Explorer (and any other open programs) are closed before trying to do a shutdown.

Check your machine for malware and make sure that you have latest updates, then reduce number of running processes because windows will have to end them all on exit and you will get message like yours often !!!

glc: First I received "IEXPLORE.EXE
This program is not responding...if yu choose to end the program immediately, you will lose any unsaved data.To end the program now, click end now..." After receiving the above message I I only receive the above message if I've been online. Do I need to get rid of my cookies - cashe? What do yu think? My antivirus and firewall are current. |

You will not find iexplore.exe under applications because it's a process you can see it under processes tab in task manager!!!

CTRL + ALT + DEL or right click on toolbar and select task manager!!!
You can also type msconfig in RUN box on XP machines and be able to see Processes tab when msconfig opens!!! |

Now, how do I turn off the InternetExplorer? Do I just high light "IEXPLORE.EXE" and then click end process? If I end process -- will IEXPLORE.EXE automatically start up when I reboot? |

Yes it will start up when you click on your IE icon on desktop !!! I think it's not set to start on Windows Startup!!!
Do you still have this iexpore.exe issue??? And did you check your computer for VIRUSES and SPYWARE ??? Last edited by macko72; 07-03-2005 at 02:31 PM. |

What is the difference between "End Process Tab and End Task" Is there a nice clear
nontech answer? Something the rest of us could understand? One more question please: Under Windows Task Manager we have "System Idle Processs" If I click "end process" What will happen? Will it shut off internet explorer? |

Try using stop on that( System Idle) you will notice that you can't stop system process that easy!!!
And for yours question when you hit End task it closes program that is running including his process, but some processes (particals of some programs) can run without whole program and you can identify them by name check here: http://www.what-process.com/index.aspx so process can be part of task(program) or whole (task) program !!! |

Hi Macko72: I went into task manager/ processes/ hilighted "IEXPLORE.EXE" and then the following messsage appeared
"Task Manager Warning Warning: Terminating a process can cause undesirred results including loss of data and system instability. The process will not be given the chance to save its state or data before it is terminated. Are you sure you want to teminate the process? yes no " What do you think about that warning? Your opinion please...thanks- George |
