Your computer is infected with Sasser worm. To remove it, first disconnect the network cable so other computers are not infected. Also, you will notice that it will not restart once it's not on a network. Once the infected system is isolated, download and burn following updates on a CD to install it on the server:
http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/sasser.mspx
Additionally, I recommend running Sasser Removal Tool (available through the link below) on ALL of your computers in your LAN because apparantly you got this worm either from the Internet or from your local area network:
Sasser (A-F) Worm Removal Tool (KB841720) from Microsoft's website:

Please visit the following Microsoft website and install all Security Updates posted after September 2003. This includes the Blaster worm patch.
http://www.microsoft.com/security/antivirus/default.mspx
In your next post, please include more details. If you are getting a dialog box that looks like one below, your system is infected with Blaster worm.
It is also possible that your system is infected with multiple worms. Please provide details such as how soon does it restart, does it also restart when with it's not connected to a network, etc.

Your issue maybe one that is discussed on this Microsoft KB. Though the KB article states that it applies only to Windows XP; generally, XP and 2003 are very similar on the inside.

Hi Thanks for the speedy reply..
I tried the update but no joy. I was only on the net for a very short time so I don’t think it’s a virus..
This is what happened!!!
I received my Poweredge 700 server from Dell on Friday. I did the Microsoft updates and set up a domain that is all I did.
I then moved the Server to an Office with no Internet access on Saturday.
When I turned on the server on Saturday before the log in screen the server hangs on the screen saying applying computer settings!!!! It stayed on this screen for 2hrs.
I retasterd and it hung again for 3hrs.
I then restarted in safe mode and selected the last know good configuration..
That is were I am today the lsass.exe Error!!!
System error lsass.exe:
When trying to update a password the return status indicates that the value provided as the current password is not correct.

Assuming you are also using XP, you can try to repair Windows. If you cannot repair it using Recovery Console by booting to an XP (or 2003) CD, then your only option is to reinstall. You can, however, "rescue" your personal data from the drive before reinstalling ... if you don't have a real backup of your data.
