Determines how long the system waits for user processes to end after the user attempts to log off or to shut down Windows 2000. When the time specified in this entry expires, the End Task dialog box appears, stating that the process did not respond. If the value of AutoEndTasks is 1, the system ends the process automatically.

Looks like it's a Windows 2000/XP specific key. Did you by any chance do an upgrade install on that PC?
