somthin on my pc just popped up saying- "shutdown in 60 sec!!
 [/highlight]mine does that also, but did another dialog box come up that said microsoft visual c++ runtime library?The same thing happened to me awhile ago.  When that happens hurry and do this...Start>Run>cmd>then type without the <>'s.  This should stop the countdown and let you try to figure out what went wrong.This is typically connected to a Windows update.  Certain UPDATES auto-restart your computer and give you a warning before this happens.  You can disable this feature through the Group Policy Editor.

Start-->Run.  Enter "gpedit.msc"

Go to Local Computer Policy-->Computer Configuration-->ADMINISTRATIVE Templates-->Windows Components-->Windows Update.  Find "No auto-restart for scheduled Automatic Update installations".  Right-click-->Properties.  Set to "ENABLED".thanks worked!!!
I also figured out on another site that while it's happening, open the date/time properties and change the year back one!! As soon as you change it, the shutdown thingy says- "shutdown in 364 days!!"The group policy change is permanent so you won't need that trick.
