I have this same problem.
My issues began when I downloaded the new Shockwave player
on Thursday. While plaing a flash/shockwave game, my
comptuer shut off with the motherboard giving a long
*beep*.
This happened twice more, and on one reboot, I got the
lsass.exe memory error message (lowercase l no
LSASS.exe). My system finally rebooted, after I booted
into safe mode and restored to a previous point.
The crash issue happened again while running Norton AV
2004 with fully updated virus definitions. It happened
again while running Spybot S&D and again while running
Adaware.
I also ran ScanDisk (or the XP Pro equivalent) and it
showed 16K in bad sectors. I re-ran the scan to fix bad
sectors an I still have the problem.
Also, when I do boot in, I cannot see flash content on any
pages. It either does not show up, or there is the red x
in the placeholder.
