I'm not sure, we have that weird virus checker on it
Know what OS it is? Any info about the comp?
What virus checker? and are you sure that some other appliance in your house isn't just drawing a buttload of power (treadmill, large sound system, etc.)?
Tons of things could be wrong..

1. Trojan
2. Virus
3. Power failure
4. Over heating

Theres thing that need to be known about your computer.
specs, location, OS, ect..
It could even be as simple as a bad wall plugin in the house, if it's a power failure it's not always the computer, try plugging it in somewhere else and see if it does the same thing?

Seriously i could be a but load of things right??? I mean it could be hardware related OS related so much could be wrong with a computer..
Do you get a blue screen, or hear any strange sounds? Feel the case next time it happens, might be a heat issue... Or make sure your outlets are grounded, maybe your power supply is tweaking out?
Or maybe its Windows 98.... i hate WIN98 scream

some say win98 is a virus itself, but they are wrong. because virusses actuly DO something. windows XP rulezzz xp

Telling us the OS would help because if it is Windows Me, get a new computer!
