I keep getting an error message

[Guest]

When I am online I get this error message: Program will terminate because the "Remote Procedure Call" system has not been connected properly. The message is proberly wrong. But the "Romote Procedure Call" something has made my internet not connect properly and then it shuts down the whole system. What is the "Remote Procedure Call" and how do I shut it off? What can I do to stop it? it does not happen everyday. Just about once every other day
Thanks

Hi Terry

When I am online I get this error message: Program will terminate because

the "Remote Procedure Call" system has not been connected properly. The
message is proberly wrong. But the "Romote Procedure Call" something has
made my internet not connect properly and then it shuts down the whole
system. What is the "Remote Procedure Call" and how do I shut it off? What
can I do to stop it? it does not happen everyday. Just about once every
other day.

Thanks,

It is possible you may have parasites, spyware, adware,
malware, or hijackware on your system causing the problem.
Download and install, you *MUST* update the programs prior
to running to be sure they have the latest definitions, then
run the programs below. They are free and very effective. Be
sure to run both SpyBot and Adaware, as what one does
not detect the other may. It is important that you follow all
directions carefully:

It is important that you run the programs in the order that they are listed
here. The first three programs will clear your machine of all other items so
that you can have a clear HiJackThis Log for the experts to read and analyze
for you.

There is a high chance your system is infected with Blaster or similar worm.
