It's also similar to a pair of worms some of my people caught a few weeks ago.
I'd suggest googling the name of every running process on your computer -- even the ones that look undoubtedly like system things. On top of being fascinating, it's a (nearly) certain way to dig up worms of this sort. BTW, if foo returns a billion hits, search foo.exe (even if it's not called that explicitly). Good luck [img]smile.gif[/img] |

LOL, if only i HAD been there, then there would be a logical explanation.
I've noticed a patern, the rebooting only happens when i have a disc in my DVD drive. I usually patch all my games with no-CD fixes, but some games don't have one, so i need to play with the disc in the drive. So what could be the connection between the rebootings and my DVD drive ?

Could be a bad Driver. Does it happen with all disks ?
One thing I do when having problems witha driver is delete the hardware by going to. Right Click on My computer > Properties > Hardware > Device manager. Right click on the DVD Drive and delete ( or uninstall) Restart your computer and see if it still does it
