No, as the title of my post says, I have Windows XP and have a little
add on to make the start menu look like Vista. It can be found here:

Windows is set by default to reboot if a system error is
encountered ...

According to Microsoft, this rebooting can happen if Windows "thinks"
it is encountering an error during the normal shutdown process.

Try turning off Auto-restart:

Right-click on My Computer, then click Properties, then the Advanced
tab, then Settings under Startup and Recovery. Uncheck "Automatically
Restart" in the System Failure section.

Now try shutting down and let us know if the problem continues ...

You also might try uninstalling your Vista look alike utility, to see
if that fixes it
