This comes up a times when the other computer is not even on which makes me wonder if there is someone else meddling on this computer.
I have searched XP and have found this information:
The problem I have is that there is no advanced tab on my machine when I try to change the settings of my connection.
When I check on the machine at work, you can access it and firewall the computer.
Any help from the experts on this board would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Well, how many users to you have set up on the XP machine that you keep on getting that message "there are other users logged onto this computer, are you sure you want to shut down?" That message has nothing to do with your network connection, it has to do with the other user thats still logged in on the computer.When I turn my PC on, I come up to a Welcome screen, that shows my 2 users that are set up, my wife, and my self. I can go into my own , log off, have a switch user window pop up, that allows me to return to the welcome screen, and log in under the wife side. You have to log off the other user before you can shut down the screen from your side, if not, that message will continue to come up.
