Error with lsass.exe

Everytime I boot my computer (Windows 2000, self built), I
get the following error:
"The system process 'C:\WINNT\system32\lsass.exe'
terminated unexpectedly with status code 128. The system
will now shut down and restart."

And it proceeds to count down from 60 then restart. This
happens every boot. It just started Monday, and my system
has been running fine since my last reformat in December.

Apparently I have a OEM copy of Window 2000 so I can't use
"official" tech support:( I would just reformat but I have
files to back up, which is impossible at this time due to
the sixty second time frame.

Any help would be appreciated,
Neil.
 
hI NEIL
i HAVE SAME PROB SINCE YEST
PLS ADVICE DID U GET ANY SOLUTION TO IT ?
I TOO DONT HAVE BACKUP
 
I have been having computer problems the past
few days. It only happens when I am hooked up to my router and cable
modem at home. I ran all day at work (well until I had to leave to
get my crown in) today and yesterday with no problem. I assume work
has a much better firewall than is present in my router. Well it
appears theres yet another security leak in windows. BIG SUPRISE
(big eyeroll here). After 2 days of searching I found that I needed
an update. I applied and everything appears ok now. Before I
couldn't be on more than 20 minutes and have the computer shut down
with this message:

all work in progress and log off. Any unsaved changes will
be lost. This shutdown was initiated by \

This update from microsoft appears to have fixed it:

Heres some info on it:

I would advise anyone running windows to go to the first link to get
the appropriate fix. It appears someone out there is taking
advantage of this security leak and trying to gain control of random
pcs.
