Hi,

Can anyone please advise how to get 'Restart' back. Everytime I click 'Restart' my computer shuts down. Its very annoying.

Regards

Based on your two posts here, I would suggest a full system scan for virii and ad/spy ware. Use Spybot S&D, and Ad Aware (both available from download.com) For virus scanning, use AVG (grisoft.com). Sounds like you have a bug somewhere. Or your OS may be screwed. If it were me, I would back up all important data and wipe the drive and start new. I know its a pain, but you will be happy you did it once you are up and running again.
