O.P. Dodgy  random (ish) reboots
ok, i have got a new comp lately, and its been running perfectly fine. One of the first things i did was install a seperate firewall to replace the windows one, install AVG anti-virus and install Ad-Aware SE Personal; i do regular scans with both. Yet sometimes, about every two days when i click on a link (on any site, none in particular and when i revisit it seems fine) and the content is displayed after a second or two my computer just reboots. This only seems to happen when browsing the internet though and doesnt really happen on any particular page, it seems random. I cant find anything with AVG or Ad-Aware, and dont know if it will be a hardware or software problem. Any ideas? cheers,

btw, im using mozilla firefox v1.5, windows xp home sp2
