Albe,

This is an infection - either Blaster / Nachia / Welchia or Sasser. Possibly
infected before you updated.

If your computer is constantly attempting to shutdown or reboot:
Start - Run, type "shutdown -a", and hit Enter.
That should halt the reboot. Now fix the problem.

Immediately turn-on Windows XP's built-in Firewall:

Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing.
