Re: My PC keeps shuting down
when you get the message quickly go to start>run>type 'shutdown -a' and the shutdown will stop.
This is a virus you have. Go to windowsupdate.com and get all of the latest updates. Then download and isntall a good av like NOD32 or Kaspersky and sca. Delete any virus files.
btw, the shutdown will only happen while online, so you can scan with teh internet disconnected.
oh ya and none of this would have happened if you used a good up-todate firewall.
Re: My PC keeps shuting down
if that's our good old blaster virus, the xp firewall will block it until you can download a removal tool, and get your updates ;)
Re: My PC keeps shuting down
how can i get a virus after formatting and only installing windows & dsl oh well :o, ill do an updateand scan for viruses asap tho.
Re: My PC keeps shuting down
It might not be the blaster worm, because i had this problem and Dell technical support told me to do all of this st uff with updates, and the blaster worm removal tool. And nothing worked, so we just disabled the service where it tells you the pc is going to shut down, and then i had no more problems.

Re: My PC keeps shuting down
it has to be a worm...no other things can create such a weird problem
if u can't go to a lot of antivirus websites or even windows update, then ur Hosts file might've been tampered
goto this directory: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc...open up ur Hosts file with notepad
if u see a lot of "127.0.0.1" pointing to various antivirus websites...remove them
hope this helps

Nope, it's Sasser.
See where it says lsass.exe? That's the file Sasser exploits.
