Delete any spaces in the URLs.

Good luck...hope this helps!

Looks like you have aenough urls to look through. Some other general maintainence items may help as well like scandisk and defrag, if either of these won't run well disable anti-virus packages after booting in safe mode and try again f8 at boot up will bring the option to boot safe mode. Then your drive access shouldn't be holding up the shutdown process.
Download adaware from lavasoft.de and clean up the spyware from the internet on the pc. Erase your temp directory files and clear your internet cache. then do the scandisk and defrag. If nothing else at least your machine should have some of its pep back and a few less annoyances slowing it down. Good Luck!

Go to www.Microsoft.com and type "windows 98 shutdown supplement" in the "search Microsoft window" on the page. This will bring you to the webpage where you can download the fix.
Good Luck.
