If your computer is constantly attempting to shutdown
or reboot, quickly go to:
Start > Run and type: CMD , and hit enter.
This opens the Command Prompt window.
Then type: shutdown -a , and hit enter.
This should halt the rebooting problem.

Then immediately turn-on Windows XP's built-in Firewall:

(To enable the built-in firewall, go to:
Control Panel, double-click Networking and Internet
Connections, then click Network Connections. Right-click
your connection, then
Click Properties, and on the Advanced tab, click the option
"Protect my computer and network..." Note: the built in
firewall only monitors incoming traffic not outgoing (ie
spyware, trojans, etc.. you may have on your system).)
