This can be many things. Windows 2000 reboots if a fatal crash happens. I wouldn't go as far to say a hacker can control windows 2000. Windows 2000 has really good security 
It's probably a conflict when you run all those applications. What is your system specs?

just disable "reboot on system failure" in control panel / system / advanced / startup and recovery ...
win2k will show u a nice bluescreen then instead of rebooting and you can actually see what application caused the crash
its not a bug - its a feature

thanks, for letting me know about this absolutely fabulous exciting new feature that bill gates decide to include in it...
i will try disabling it.
this doesn't happen often however only once or twice a week perhaps, really irregular wiht different actiont, one time is when i switch to winamp one time is when i click start...
