everytime I start my comp. the tower is going crazy. I see this wuaudt.exe
running and don't know what it is? Everyonce in a while my comp. will just
shut down by itself and I have no clue why?

My computer does this too. It runs for at least 15 minutes on startup with
this program. Complete and thorough scans show no viruses. My other
computer doesn't seem to do this.
