Proxy Desktop Message on Shutdown

I shut down my computer and I had a message that Proxy Desktop was shutting down. I have never seen that before. Can someone please tell me what that is and how I go about stopping that from coming up? Thanks

I think it's something to do with Windows Explorer - try going to Explorer/tools/folder_options/view & see if you have a tick against 'launch folder windows in a seperate process'. If it is, then untick it & see if the problem goes away, if it isn't then see if any other ideas appear.
