spoolsv.exe
I have a new Dimension XPS Gen5, and when I start the program Neverwinter Nights, Norton Internet Security notifies me that spoolsv.exe is attempting to access a DNS server.
I have to force quit the spoolsv process to get my application to run.
I have run several antivirus and antispyware programs, and have shut off
printray and x83 as startup items. I also have Norton set to permit all acccess from spoolsv.exe, but I still get the notification.

If it isn't running, click start>run
type in: services.msc
click ok
Look for User Profile Hive on the list and make sure it's set to automatic. If it's not on the list, download/run the .exe from MS again.
I'm willing to bet uphclean is running and that's why the shut-downs are going so smoothly. And to prove that, you could disable uphclean in services.msc and get all the problems back. ;)

It wasn't running and wasn't on my list. Maybe I'll have to download it in safe mode. Anyway, I'll leave well enough alone until I have another problem... *knock on wood*
I also made a System Restore point in case I need a fall back.
