OK, I just noticed this recently. About a week ago I ran
Windows update because of the mydoom thing. There were
17 non-critical updates. I dl and installed all.

Now, when I go Start, Run, msconfig, I only have about 15
seconds to do what I want and then it turns off by
itself. Not sure if its related to the Update but thats
when I noticed it.

Any thoughts about what has happened or how to fix it?
