You too? The online solution I found was to update java, it seems to work so far.

Wait, no, it's happening again, just less frequently.

Never mind, the problems appears to have disappeared for me.

I still wonder what had happened, though.

Well, I'm in Chrome, but I started having random browser shutdowns after I downloaded something I thought I wanted (but turned out I didn't). Bundled with it was a lovely little piece of data called search conduit. It refused to uninstall with everything else and stuck itself in my browser, causing all kinds of fun. I've scrubbed it out and most of the effects have stopped, but I keep getting the random shutdowns. And they always seem to occur when I'm away from the computer.

I'm doing another round of scrubbing now.

It's Flash's fault. I've been seeing it for a while.

Trust me, I'm an engineer!

Except I get it even when I completely kill Flash in Chrome Task Manager and don't have any pages up that reload automatically.
