It's Lsass, and you haven't given us enough information to get a good
answer. What is the exact error message? On the guess that you have a
Blaster or Sasser problem, here is some cleanup information:
Sasser or Blaster:
To stop the rebooting, go to Start>Run and type "shutdown -a" without
the quotes. For information about the worm, go here:
http://www.sarc.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.sasser.worm.html
Get the worm off your system and then immediately patch XP:

Install an antivirus program and keep it updated. Install a firewall. XP
has a built-in firewall, or there are free alternatives like Zone Alarm
or Sygate. Be aware that cleanup may be complex - we are now seeing
that infected computers usually have more than one variant of Sasser,
as well as one or more instance of a polybot worm from the
Gaobot/Agobot family.
What version of Norton? Are your definitions updated? Go here to get
help in making a good post:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
Then do come back and repost with all necessary details. There are lots
of people reading this newsgroup who want to help you (like me), but
you have to give us something with which to work.
