My sister has a computer problem. Pls help!!

[Tesco]

My sister has WinXP and it keeps comming up with "NT Authority system needs to shut down" this is happening all the time and the last time she was on her computer for 30 mins it happened 5 times. It gives 30 sec then restarts. (these dodgy PC's Kev sells lol).

Any ideas peeps?

get the blaster patch

[Vash]

Yeah, get the blaster patch and then update your virus defs and scan for blaster infections. Or, alternatively, pick up the blaster removal tool from Norton. Your sis' PC's got blaster.

Thanks for your prompt input guys. Will let her know.

Just another tip : to prevent the computer from restarting (so you can, for example, get and install the patch) click on START -> Execute, type 'cmd', hit Enter. The command-line console should show up. Then type 'shutdown -a', Enter. And, oh... the computer is magically still running :D.

You got all that help because you said it was your sister... if it was your brother, or your grand mother, you probably wouldnt have any responses yet....
