Recently, when on Internet, I started getting message
> Isass.exe - error code 128 - shutting down, save any open files.<
within 30 seconds computer shuts down and restarts.
This apppears at random times, sometimes twice in a session.
Any ideas what this is?

Its a virus...If I remember correctly most likely a Netsky variant. You need to update your virus scan software and scan your drive to remove the virus and update your Windows software with all the lastest patches.
