My Macbook is rebooting itself all the time randomly! - Help!

My Macbook is randomally rebooting itself (seems like it's juicing memory like it was a hot day). although I have 3 things opened (firefox, word, powerpoint) it seems like it's too much for it.


It's a Macbook 13"- Aluminum from late 2008

Processor 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

Memory 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB

Software OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)


Any ideas what's causing it and how can I fix things myself if I can???
