Ok, well it looks like it is not your computer then, just that game. Do you think that Windows is trying to tell you something? Maybe that particular game contains some nasty and Windows is shutting down to protect itself. I have heard of that possibility.
Find another game instead perhaps?

Hi GG,
I have just googled Challenger Tetris and there are two versions of it. The free Demo and the Full (paid) version. Which do you have?

And it appears to be the only game that clicks my computer off. Grrr!

Do you think it might be my firewall settings or something?

Hi GG,
I doubt if it is your firewall. Is there an error message that shows before the game crashes? Do you get a blue screen with white text on?

No ... no error messages or blue screens. I just play (using the arrow keys) then `click' and the computer just shuts off. No warnings, nothing.
