"Ending Programme" : - "should not see me"

Tutorials Win: Microsoft Windows Forum

I got this message on my PC when shutting down with nothing open.
Is it something I should be worried about, my PC is freezing a lot in IE7,
but has twice in the past few days been declared clean of malware.

Thanks crazyal, but I've had people prodding and poking since early Feb to no
avail, twice declared clean, and still getting more problems the more my PC
is probed.
I've bookmarked the site you suggest, and the link to "Clean re-install"
instructions, however I've already done a factory re-set, and don't have much
faith that a clean re-install, if I can achieve it on my own, will let me
escape from the devil on my back!

It could be either a bad/corrupt application or BHO installed on your
browser, does the system work okay other than the IE7 freeze?.
Please try to start IE7 with Ad-Ons Disabled:

Look in the right Pane/window for error message with red (X) or Yellow

causer.
