computer reboots after security center starts

[Guest]

McAfee McShield service starts scanning for viruses, Engine
version:5.1.00(even if I disable it) , None found. Then windows security
Center Service starts and reboots the computer. This can happen when playing
a game or surfing the net or just about anytime. Help please!

You should consider trying to save what data you can, and using whatever
tools you own to rebuild your system from scratch. Youy pretty obviously have
a virus that you don't have the skill to remove.

I have scanned my computer for viruses and none were found. The rebooting
does not happen everyday. I think it has more to do with the windows security
center rebooting the computer. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.
