Problems with lsass.exe shutting computer down

Right now I'm on a win 98 computer but I'm having problems
with my Win XP computer. I can't stay on my Win XP
computer for more then a few minutes because it says
there's a problem with the LSA Shell and has to shut down
and I get the shut down timer of 30 seconds and it says
something about lsass.exe status code 1073741819. Well I
looked it up in the knowledge base and all it tells me to
do is install the newest service pack. But that's the
thing, I can't because the computer shuts down so much.
The longest it's stayed up is 4 minutes and I can't
download the service pack that fast with dial up.

So is there anyway to turn off that auto shut down when I
get this messege?? That way I can at least download the
service pack for XP. This is frustrating me beyond belief,
I don't know what to do about it. So any suggestions would
help tons. Thanks!

Congratulations!



Your system is infected with the much publicized Sasser worm. You allowed

yourself to become infected because of ALL of the following;



1. You have not updated your version of Windows.



2. You are not using an UP TO DATE antivirus program.



3. You connected to the internet without a firewall on your computer.



Until you correct ALL of the above situations, you will remain vulnerable to

infection not only by SASSER, but also by the thousands of other worms,

viruses, trojans, keyloggers, spyware, malware, etc.



Because you do not practice even the most basic level of computer security,

you are not only a threat to yourself but to the entire internet community.

When your machine is infected, it looks for other machines, owned by persons

like yourself who have poor computer security practices, to infect.



When the shutdown message appears, go START > Run and type in "shutdown -a"

(without the quotes), and hit the enter key. Go to the Microsoft update

website and download and install all critical patches. After rebooting, go

to the website of the company that makes your antivirus program and download

all the updates that are available. If your antivirus has expired, you must

purchase a new one.



Third, go to www.zonealarm.com and download the FREE firewall.



Keep your version of Windows updated. Always install any critical patches

that are posted to the Microsoft update website.



Keep you antivirus program up to date. New virus detection signatures are

released nearly on a daily basis, so this is something you should do every

day. Not once a month, or "when I have time", or "when I remember".



Once you have done these things, you will find your internet experience to

be much safer and happier.

I'm afraid I had the same program - Sasser E virus. I
had to load the virus program first then the service pack.
However, I still have problems.
