again you refust to answer if you have a firewall...I don't give a flip how many computers you have on your network...you started LW once and I'm going to assume you got connected to peers...one of said peers could very well be one of the evil good guys...you know, of the type that has no problems installing rootkits on your machines (Sony), and would have no problem paying a third party to do their best to feck up anybody's computer who is on the gnutella network...please take note that I am not a LW buff or really a supporter (I use BearShare 5.1.0b25)..that being said, I can document many times I have been basically DDOS'd off of the network by said paid third parties (henchmen) and would have no problem believing they are the root of your problems...of course it could just be happenstance that you are having these problems...if you used a dual boot machine like I do you could easily go in and replace lsass.exe remotely using the working OS (dual boot, remember) and looking at the thrashed OS as just a data drive...
