Abending in Windows with "RPC"

[Bronxcats]

After I sign on the AT&T internet, in about 5 minutes, I
get a window pop-up saying "Windows must shut down"
(RPC).
Notified by: NT Authority/System

What do I do to stop this? I cannot work it keeps
shutting my windows down.

Please Help

Right I have posted all the info on my website, and the link to Symantec. It
seems like a worm is responsible for this RPC vulnerability, and RPC fix,
and removal instructions are on my website.

There you will find the type of RPC error that has been going around very
rapidly at the moment, and the link to Symantec which has fixes.

Hope this helps;
