hi, my question today is about this lsa shell.
the system brings up the error stating that a problem occured in nt authority/system32/lsass.exe status code 1073741819 and then counts down for one (1) minute and shuts down and restarts the system. it happens only when you dial up to the internet.the system is a gateway e machine with win xp home any help would be appreciated

humm appears you have the sasser worm or a variant of it. visit microsoft's security site for information, a test to see if you have the worm, patch information and removal instructions. here's a link. http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.mspx

the link will not work if there are spaces in it. To reduce the chances of putting spaces in with copy and paste, copy the link right to left to make sure you don't put spaces in it.

if the link doesn't work visit http://www.microsoft.com/security
