While dialing up, got this message
The system process c:\\windows\system32\lsass.exe terminated unexpectedly with status code 1072741819, gives 60 seconds then reboots. I don't have time to do anything on the system before it reboots!

Can anybody shed some light, or point me in the right direction

Sure Bro

Microsoft has a full forum about the lsass.exe, it's the darned new worm
You can also try the Bazooka Free tool available at http://www.kephyr.com, that has manual removal instructions

REMEMBER : NEVER RENAME THAT DARNED FILE FROM SAFE MODE

I just burnt my fingers ;

Thanks.
 
Greetings --

You've apparently contracted the latest worm, W32.Sasser.Worm,
specifically designed to attack people who do not update their
computers promptly and who do not practice "safe hex." In other
words, like Blaster, this worm was developed and distributed _after_ a
patch for the vulnerability was announced and made publicly available.
Further, and also like Blaster, this worm could not affect any
computer whose user had taken the basic precaution of using a properly
configured firewall.

To stay on-line long enough to get the necessary updates, patches,
and removal tools, click Start > Run, and enter "shutdown -a" when the
next RPC countdown begins. This will abort the shut down. Also, make
sure you've enabled a firewall before starting, to preclude any more
intrusions while getting the updates/patches/tools.
