Make windows XP shut down quickly.

start->run->type regedit, click OK-
click on the + sign beside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SYSTEM>ControlSet001>
highlight Control

~On the right windows, locate this entry "WaitToKillServiceTimeout" and
put a value "200"

start->run->type msconfig, click OK-
goto startup tab -> click disable all, chk any necessary options, (like
ccapp for NORTON, mcagent for Mcaffe) etc

Create a shortcut on your desktop and put this command line in it...
