laptop restart when shut down Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,

I bought this laptop last year. Now, it is facing an issue. For a last few days, when I shut down my laptop, it automatically restarts. I thought, it is affect by virus. So I did a full scan. A tracking cookie appears. I deleted it. Then I shut down my laptop. The only thing I use to can shut down my laptop is by pressing the main power button.

Please help!
System Configuration: Windows Vista Opera 9.64
