How come I can't turn this thing off??? For the past day
and a half, I am unable to turn off my computer. When I
try, it just turns itself back on, sometimes immediately,
sometimes it takes a couple minutes. I've even tried
unplugging it! (OK, not really, but it sounds scary,
doesn't it?)
But seriously. What gives? Is this a security issue? The
only thing that I did just before the trouble began was
to utilize MS update. I've got XP home ed
Thanx
