Its happened twice now. I'll be using either Safari or MSN Messenger, and suddenly my screen will go blue, and OSX will restart. Not the whole computer, but it will go back to the login screen.

Is this normal? I mean not normal but its not a big problem, is it?

I have had a similar problem with my 15inch Aluminum PowerBook. Occasionally, on waking up from sleep it would log me out. I have my screen saver password protected if that makes a difference.

Maybe the screen goes blue to make windows users feel more comfortable using a mac. I mean, I'm sure that switchers out there are going through serious BSoD withdrawls all the time! 😀 🙄

It does that to me, but I keep logged in. I'm guessing it's some sort of screen refresh in my case, in your case, I don't know what it is.
