Windows 7 slow shut down issues?

It takes a good 3 minutes for my system to shut down, I have tried the usual registry tweaks to shorten the amount of time it takes to kill a process, but no real change. Nothing, of any consequence in my event viewer.

The only thing that I can find that's strange is that when I restart IE always tells me that I ended my last sesson abruptly and asks me if I want to resume the session. I take care to shut it down each time.

Any ideas?
 
I'm having the same observation. My time to desktop on bootup is ~24s, but shutdown time is a magnitude larger. I wouldn't usually notice it, cause I'm used to a long shut down time (former XP user), but comparitively, and considering I have been restarting alot, it does become bothersome.
 
Yesterday I tried killing all the processes manually before shutting down, no change. It may be a configuration issue with indexing, prefetch or pagefile (all of which I have disabled)
