I agree with Asyn and to add to that you are using a very outdated version of pctools firewall, the latest is 7.0.0.123 and threatfire's development has come to a stop i believe plus i dont think it is compatible with avast.

OMG i found out something new!!!

1-uninstalled Avast 6.0.1203 and used Avast AV Removal tool.
2-Installed Avast Free 6.0.1279

Results: NOTHING CHANGED! same problem "system won't shutdown or restart"

BUT!!!

when i use "FireFox 6.0.1" or "IE 8" i face that problem!
when i use "Firefox 6.0.1" or "IE 8" while Avast "not installed in my system 8)" everything is fine!

forced the system to shutdown using the magical power of my finger
and when windows started again i tried to shutdown it without surfing the internet or using FireFox or any browser and everything went fine!!!
WHILE after writing this post and closing FireFox i'm sure windows not gonna shutdown!

I'M CONFUSED.........

Ok with Steve now making his own topic I can tell you that I re-installed avast and disabled the installation of unnecessary shields seems to be working so far. 3 successful shutdowns in a row (not booted and shutdown one after the other all with different time lapses) So far so good but I'm still hesitant so if my PC shutdown successfully 10 times in a row I'll call this problem solved but if not I'll be back!

Which shields you installed and which ones you didn't? Other users might benefit from your experience.

I only installed web shield and P2P and disabled the silly avast gadget on my desktop. I only have avast check anything internet related nothing more.

My computer did an update this morning and yup my computer did hang but i'm dismissing it as the updates fault. I'll see how I get on.
