After downloading movies, when I go to shutdown my computer, I get a message that says: End Program-DDE Server Window. It will stay on the screen until I Cancel or End Program. Then my computer will shut down or restart. Please help me get rid of this problem. Have a great day.

do you use a p2p client such as limewire to download? if so, it may be running a "stealth" agent in the background and is not stopping properly during the shutdown. see if you can force it to fully close when you close the programs' main window by going through the program options/prefs.
