Actually, we use the classic start menu and frequently the keyboard is
used to navigate the start menu instead of a mouse. So, the issue here
is when you hit the "Windows Key" and arrow up attempting to hit "Run"
and you are in a hurry and accidentally select "Log Off".

I really appreciate your completely unhelpful and disrespectful reply,
though!

And, yes we do need a confirmation for a multi part action that will
force all open applications closed. Especially when there are 700+
users who are used to having a confirmation from XP when logging off.

For viewers who may actually be curious about the same thing, or people
who'd genuinely like to help with problems, we will probably end up
removing "Log Off" from the start menu.
