We discussed this last night, but since then I have learned a little more. If your computer is forcing itself to reboot then you are most likely infected. The virus spreads through an email attachment, and once a computer is infected, it then spreads by the TFTP and RPC services that runs on Windows 2000 and XP machines. You should download and install the patch for this vulnerability ASAP. The link is below:

If you think you might be infected, you should run McAfee's Stinger program to detect and remove the worm. Link is below:
