Hi. I'm useless at trying to figure out my own pc problems. I recently purchased a IBM thinkpad from a gov't surplus site. I was told that it had been swiped. It has windows 2000 professional. I downloaded moxilla firefox, internet explorer, and adobe flash player. The problem I'm having is that when I go to certain sites my computer completely shuts off. I have to restart it every time it does. The sites are common. For example, Southwest.com. I can click onto the site but when I try to put in info for booking flights it just shuts down. Please help. This is driving me and my wife crazy!
