SYMPTOMSIt may take an unusually long time to shut down or log off a Windows-based computer on which Roaming User Profiles are enabled. CAUSEThis behavior can occur if Internet Explorer is installed on the computer, and your user profile contains a large Temporary Internet Files folder (cache). RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use any of the following methods:
Method 1Empty your Temporary Internet Files folder each time you quit Internet Explorer. To do so, follow these steps:
Method 2Maintain each user's temporary Internet files in the user's Home directory. Although this still consumes server storage, it does not require that the files be copied to the server when users log off.Method 3Maintain all users' temporary Internet files in a shared common folder. Note that if you use this method, all user's cookies are stored in the same location.Method 4Maintain each user's temporary Internet files on the local drive in a location other than the user's profile folder. This is the most efficient method. However, this does not allow a user's cookies to follow the user to other stations.MORE INFORMATION
Internet Explorer 4.0 and 4.01 supports Roaming User Profiles. This means
that your personal Internet Explorer settings (Active Desktop, favorites,
subscriptions, cache, and cookies) are stored on a Microsoft Windows NT
server, and are copied to any Windows-based computer you log on to that is
configured to use Roaming User Profiles. Your settings are copied back to
the server when you shut down or log off the computer. If your Temporary
Internet Files folder is large, it can take an unusually long time to shut
down or log off the computer. Additionally, this can cause disk space
problems on servers with many user profiles, or with several user profiles
that contain large Temporary Internet Files folders.
