Did you make any software changes before the problem started
happening-like installing new programs?

[hudginsb37]

i had judt did windows update this this started it put windows sp1 on there i
think thats it

 

[JM]

I would recommend that you download and install sp4, reboot, then see
what happens. Win2000 isn't secure with just sp1 anyway. Also, what
program are you using for your antivirus/firewall on win2000?
