Glad to know I'm not imagining it! 
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I run 8.1, shutdown the computer down a couple of times, came back the next morning and it was asleep instead.
Had to reboot by 12 noon both times, because strange things were happening.

Thank goodness I'm still using Windows 7. I've never noticed that problem with W7, and I often don't reboot my laptop for weeks.

 Windows 7, 32 bit os, 5400 disk, flaky VS 2013 debugger and enough corporate crap wear to drown a dog and I need to reboot twice a DAY. Stop your bitching!

I've never noticed that on my desktop/laptop running 8.1, but I can tell you that my wife's PC (running Windows 7) did stuff like that for a few weeks back in February and she thought it was just IE acting badly (which of course, is completely believable). Then one day she couldn't open any of her files, because some CryptoLocker malware had been encrypting all of the files on her hard-drive and was now blackmailing her to pay them $750 in bitcoin via a secure site using the Tor browser. So... I'd suggest running MalwareBytes or something similar, just in case.

Yes, it usually happen to me. Sometimes even more strange thing happen, "Hibernate" option from the Shutdown menu completely remove. So instead of putting the computer to Hibernate, i have to shutdown.
And yes, after 3-4 days of sleep/hibernate cycles, systems comes to its knees, and again i have no choice but to shutdown.

Not at all - and I default to sleep at least daily.
Only problem I have that sometimes network card doesn't want to wake up.
Could be a crappy (or crapping-out) disk.

Only you can weigh the pros and cons of this company to decide what is the right decision. If all you care about is money then go for it. But make sure it will provide secure employment and opportunities for the future.

I'm single, so I don't think job security is not more important than salary .Anyway I got bit confused and i planned to work for 6 months in that company , then approach to any MNC with that pay slip, Is that good decision?

If you can only work there 6 months, then that is better than nothing. I prefer to work at a company at least a year before moving on. Eventually, you will make the money you desire, then choose a company you can stay at like Google, Microsoft, etc... A company that can afford your salary requirements.
This is what I did and I am very happy with my game plan and decisions.

Let's just hope that nobody from that company hangs out in The Lounge!
I work for a small company, and I know we wouldn't be happy to find out that the person we'd just hired was actively planning their next job even before they'd started working for us.

You wouldn't be happy, of course, neither would I, but unfortunately, most companies don't pay top wages.

Yes, no, maybe. You will not know until 6 months have passed.

Once you make a certain salary, you have a better chance of commanding that salary or higher, on other ventures.
If you are married with family, or just with kids, then you may want something a little more stable then a new/startup company, I would think.

I appreciate the offer but you're not my type. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Well, when a girl says that to me, I usually ask for clarification too!

Now that was funny.

Because they get pestered with "I'm single"?

I love those, because it's an opportunity to contribute in more ways than just being a code monkey, or, as I put it recently to a company courting me, "a mobile brain."
Me personally, I would go for it. Twice the salary is great, and like someone else said, it sets the benchmark for what you can ask in the future.
On the other hand, you might ask these questions, which I also asked of said company:
Where they're getting their funding
how stable they think that funding is
you might ask to look at their business plan
when they plan on being profitable
who their competitors are (do some research yourself too!)
why their product is better
their marketing strategy
etc.
Also, talk to the other developers and ask them why they joined, how they find working there, what reservations they had and how they were addressed.
You may also want to carefully tell your current employer you have a lucrative opportunity and whether they would be willing to increase your salary, as it seems like you are a valuable "mobile brain" by others. 
That's my 2c.
