I've had the problem if Explorer.exe hanging on shutdown for a while now and it has taken me quite a while to narrow down what may be the cause. When I shutdown I get the hang dialog box 'end now'type propmt, when I end explorer.exe it shuts down OK. I discovered that Virtual Desktops was the error but only when I had wallpapers on the screens. If I removed the wallpapers the system shuts down without the explorer.exe hanging. Strange I know but so far

Well after some un-installing and reinstalling and rebooting (not sure what sequence) I finall was able to get a different right-click menu on the virtual desktops which gave me access to the configuration menu. I was able to set different wallpapers for each desktop and have the images reflected as mini backgrounds. Not sure what happened to enable me to so this as I've been trying for a week now - but I'm happy it's working now. <img src="http://
