sounds like you have the blaster virus,,,,,,,,,,,

tip - don't install your OS when you are directly connected to the Internet via cable or DSL, unless you are behind a hw or sw firewall.

Yeah, blaster or sasser worm

Allways allways allways remember to unplug your net connection (or to not dial up) when doing a fresh install. Those worms are evil, and you'll want a hardware or software firewall enabled before exposing your beautiful new install to the horrors of the 'net.

just found out exactly what the problem is, well this is my cousins computer and i was helping him fix it,
-it was his dsl connection. we disabled the connection and the problem was gone for hours, then within minutes of enableing the connection, the error popped up. so he's gonna call verizon tommorow and see wat they can do. I will try unplugging the connection and then reinstalling windows
thanks for the help

Yep, good old blaster. I had the same problem on my crappy old laptop. Like it was said, keep your computer disconected while doing new installs, but for now, try some good anti virus software and I think windows update does have an unpdate the protects against the blaster worm
