Next chance I get I'll play with the SW_WATCHDOG and see if that stops 
the problem on my boxes.  Out of sheer luck, the two that have the 
problem are at my office, and the two that do not are at my co-lo.  
None of the dozen 4.x boxes ever fail to reboot at the co-lo, either, 
the once or twice a year I upgrade them.
