Computer keeps rebooting when online

**bmsbms29** · 06-25-2009, 10:26 AM

This has occurred only since you guys helped me get rid of malware. I then uninstalled BitDefender. Installed AVASt & Outpost- computer rebooted itself- uninstalled AVAST. Tried another antivirus - same thing. Uninstalled it.
Uninstalled Outpost firewall. Activated Windows firewall. same thing - computer rebooted itself when online.

Currently have AVG antivirus & Outpost firewall. Computer stills reboots itself.
I've cleaned it with compressed air. Computer lets me stay online about 10-15 minutes then reboots itself - no warnings. Screen goes blank & computer reboots itself.

Do I have another malware????

Please help (I tried help at Windows XP but was only told to use compressed air & now that thread is no longer there - wasn't even closed. ????)

Oh yeah, Desktop w/Windows XP Professional

A short while ago, I started computer & immediately went to ebay. Click on an auction & computer immediately rebooted. No time for computer to get hot.
I uninstalled Outpost firewall & turned on Windows firewall.
But a few days ago computer rebooted when Windows firewall was on.

I've been online at ebay for over an hour - when all of a sudden, screen went blank. I waited. Turned off monitor, turned it back on, waited & just had to maximize I.Explorer & ebay was there. Has not happened before.
Will be back with the dds..., etc.

Same thing occurred again. not long after above. Computer did not reboot as before. Instead screen went blank & I.Explorer minimized itself.
Below is dds..extc.

No help. But computer stopped rebooting itself AFTER I uninstalled Outpost firewall.

But internet still slower than usual.

But thanks anyway.

Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Arkansas Posts: 94 OS: Windows XP Pro	Computer keeps rebooting when online This has occurred only since you guys helped me get rid of malware. I then uninstalled BitDefender. Installed AVASt & Outpost- computer rebooted itself- uninstalled AVAST. Tried another antivirus - same thing. Uninstalled it. Uninstalled Outpost firewall. Activated Windows firewall. same thing - computer rebooted itself when online. Currently have AVG antivirus & Outpost firewall. Computer stills reboots itself. I've cleaned it with compressed air. Computer lets me stay online about 10-15 minutes then reboots itself - no warnings. Screen goes blank & computer reboots itself. Do I have another malware???? Please help (I tried help at Windows XP but was only told to use compressed air & now that thread is no longer there - wasn't even closed. ????)

Click on an auction & computer immediately rebooted. No time for computer to get hot. I uninstalled Outpost firewall & turned on Windows firewall. But a few days ago computer rebooted when Windows firewall was on.

I waited. Turned off monitor, turned it back on, waited & just had to maximize I.Explorer & ebay was there. Has not happened before. Will be back with the dds..., etc.
