Help!
My computer keeps shutting down after 10 mins. It says its shutting down by NT Authority System. I remember someone had the Win32 Blaster when it did it. Do I have it? I checked with AntiVirus and its not detecting anything. What should I do?

disconnect your cable from your NIC/modem before the counter gets to
00:00:00 and it will stop your machine from rebooting thats what they said in that page greedy posted ..i think i guess the idea would be to go to another computer and get the fix from the net and do the repair while it was offline? |

Disconnecting the cable does not stop the countdown. On XP you can type 'shutdown -a' to prevent reboot. This will allow you to download the patch. Disconnecting the cable or disabling the network interface will prevent re-infection while you run the removal tool and apply the security patch.

I deleted the Win32 Blaster Worm but it came back in like 5 minutes. I have a 56k. It seems to shut down when I go on my other internet service. I will try the patch. Thanks for your help

You can abort the shutdown in a command window with "shutdown -a".
