2 times today I was watching a show on hulu and looking on some forums on a window open right next to it. Then I hear a clicking sound through my headphones and a message pops up saying I need to turn my computer off immediately. I do that and its fine.

Dunno if this is a big deal or not

Oh and this is from someone who has no idea how to use macs

Sounds like a kernel panic to me.
Nothing too much to worry about. What version of OSX are you running?
I have heard somewhere that 10.7.2 has a bug which causes kernel panics.
