Although, the port required for remote access may also be blocked.

I use RealVNC.

What could be my problem is my computer randomly restarts whenever it wants.
After it reboots it says
A SERIOUS ERROR HAS OCCURED.
 Its been happening for about a year and its really annoying. I tried installing antivirus stuff ( I deleted it earlier on because it was annoying) but then my computer goes spastic and says its found 1 million viruses (seriously) and then i try fix or remove the infected files and it keeps coming up with the same file and then my computer is unable to be used (I nearly had to wipe my comp cause I couldnt open any programs and couldnt delete the anti virus program)
But somehow finally i deleted the antivirus program and now i am just left with annoying random reboots!
HELP!

It sounds like you need to reformat your computer, because it is infested with viruses. Reformatting involves wiping your entire hard-drive, so you will need to have the CDs ready to install your OS and drivers again. If you have music that you want, back them up, but try to get them virus scanned before you bring them back to your newly reformatted computer.

I don't even have the CD's for my OS because I am illegal =P and my uncle did it a few years ago. I could just buy new ones yeh? and I really don't know how to do all that. Argh. And its very time consuming isnt it =(
I always find problems thou. No doubt, me trying to reformat my computer would somehow result with my screen being turned upside down =(

Have you tried Booting in Safe Mode with Networking and then checking out the process? It could be spyware or a trojan horse.

Alternatively, you could get a m..... don't worry,  I don't want to start a flame war lolz.

You seem to have an unstable program that causes random restarts. But, i'm too tired now to explain :p
