I use Outpost firewall on a XP SP2 system (NOD 32 as antivir soft).

When I shut down the PC I see a message telling "do you want to stop Outpost
service....." and both if I say yes or not the comp takes a lot of time to
switch off.

I tried to search into Outpost properties to find an option kind of "stop
Outpost without asking" or something like that but no luck".

Any hint, please?

Thank you

Marky

BTW, Outpost is not really a firewall. It's a badly implemented packet
filter.

Sincere condolences.

Because Outpost has sincere security design flaws, maybe you could
consider using just the Windows-Firewall.

If you want application filtering,stick with outpost and ask at the
forums.Windows firewall has had bugs too.
