It sounds nothing like any of the blaster worms I've seen.

My father had the exact problem with the computer rebooting constantly and it was the blaster virus, or one very similar that was out at the same time. If it wasn't the blaster, my apologies, a quick google search should answer that question. I'm in the middle of a poker game at the moment though and am posting in between hands. :)

The problem with these worms was usually associated with XP though and not 98, so that may not be the problem afterall. The rebooting would usually happen when connecting to the net via a dial up connection, again with XP.

When I finish my poker game, I'll do a bit more research.
