PC shuts down itself @10:50 pm automatically .. everyday.. :(

I'm facing a strange issue for past one month.

By sharp 10:50 pm everyday night, my system automatically shuts down

I'm afraid if my system has been hacked . It displays a message like shown below before shutting down.

I even tried altering the time, like, i tried changing the time to 10:55 at 10:48 itself, still i couldn't stop it ..

I'm really disturbed now. pls help guys.

haha! from the message it seems its setup by your parents/friend.
Let it be

other wise check scheduled tasks, disbale the antivirus or whatever tools is being used.

Log in as ADMIN and disable parental Controls--I Think this is the only issue

Open task manager, select the window and click go to process. Let me see which process is spawning this message ?

Hi Bro is there anyone in ur home who can install an hidden Auto Shutdown APP on ur computer

Nobody other than me uses the system. And you ppl want me to check the task manager exactly when that msg pops up uh ?

hey also upload screen shot of Task Scheduler.

guess i have found the problem.
it was in scheduled task list . thanks for helping me to spot it out. *img43.imageshack.us/img43/5697/erfound.jpg

??

hahhaha lol topic

which internet connection you use ? Cable net ? Make sure any kind of network access to system is disabled

Message was awesome. Too good.

Enjoy~!

good, you are not that much of a n00b as I expected.

If nobody else uses your computer and you didnt installed an application that may have a hidden program or a batch script in it which initiated the task then yes you are right about being hacked! Probably this is the time you should think about having a powerful operating system around you incase of a hack

and if you dont have a good firewall please install one !

^^ i currently use avast free edition. will buying a full version of kaspersky or other antivirus softwares help me ?

^^^ Don't buy Anti virus
Stick with Microsoft security Essential--- Free @Check ur windows update

W

get kaspersky antivirus 1 year license for Rs.210 or kaspersky internet security for Rs.260.i don't see any point in using microsoft security essential or any free antivirus when one can get kaspersky this cheap.(even cheapest cheese burst dominos pizza cost ~290
