HELP needed urgent engine problem

[sootyman-2008]

I was driving home today and it was fine all the way home until the last bend before my house

I went to put my foot down in 2nd and all of a sudden the engine cut power and the light inbetween the petrol light and the oil light came on (a box symbol with like electric looking lines and underneath loop type of things:S) so as fast as i could react i switched the engine off and let it roll

I havent tried starting it at all until i know more, so can anyone please please help????

Anyone know wa it could be and wa that sign means???
