Userenv - Change to LocalService or NetworkService

Hi, I use a Microsoft Natural Keyboard and when I close down my PC an Event Log is created that says:

Windows saved user TOMSDESKTOP\Tom registry while an application or service was still using the registry during log off. The memory used by the user's registry has not been freed. The registry will be unloaded when it is no longer in use.

This is often caused by services running as a user account, try configuring the services to run in either the LocalService or NetworkService account.

I have read some articles that suggest it is the keyboard causing this problem. How do I go about changing how the service is running?

Thanks, Tom

If you suspect it's the keyboard, uninstall the Intellitype software.

Yeah, the only thing with that is without the IntelliType software I can't use the shortcut buttons for Winamp etc.

Or will I?

Probably not, but you need to uninstall it to do logical troubleshooting, right?

I admit I was being lazy, I will uninstall it later this evening and see if it solves this niggly error.
