To stop automatic restarts after a dump:

> Righ-click 'My Computer'
> Select 'Properties'
> Select 'Advanced' tab
> Push the 'Settings' button in 'Startup and Recovery';

last section in window.

> Uncheck the 'automatically restart' box

What do you mean with 'bugchecks'? Scanning for virus? Scanning for spyware?
Installing MS updates?

XP rebooting after doing the latter is quite normal, as some patches require
a reboot to be applied completely (come to think of it, most require a
reboot).
