    Win2000 no other problems. Last thing I did before shut down was run Ad aware and Spybot

    Have you tried pressing F8 and then going into safe mode / vga mode ?
    that bypasses some programs on startup

    OR does it give a blue screen and say STOP before rebooting ?

    Did you have a white search box located on your task bar? If so it could have been blazefind spyware shíte. It has a tendency to mess up your computer if you use adaware or spybot to remove it.
