Remote Procedure Call - Auto shutdown

[Aurel]

Hello,
I have a PC with WindowsXP Home edition.
When a network adapter (wireless or Ethernet) is active
upon bootup, after a few seconds I get an error message:
"SYSTEM SHUTDOWN: NT\AUTHORITY
SYSTEM: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) terminated
unexpectedly"
then the PC automatically shuts down after a 1:00min
countdown. It keeps looping bootup /error /shutdown /
reboot etc. until I reboot with all adapters disabled.

Would anybody know what the issue is, and if there's a fix?
Thanks,
Aurel

This doesn't protect you from the virus at all, it just tries to hide some
of the symptoms. And some programs may not deal with the service
restarting.

You still need the patches.

this virus has been around for quite a while i first came across it about

2 years ago and below i have written how to fix without having to use any
patches that may not work.

I'm not sure if this works for everyone but it worked on my computer.
to stop your computer restarting or shutting down you should. ..
1. open control panel and go to administrative tools and then services.

2.go down the list and look for nt authority, remote procedure call or

what ever service your computer says has failed before it shuts down.

3. double click on the service and then click the recovery tab.

4. change first failure from restart the computer to restart service.

5. do the same for the second and third failure.

6. then click ok and exit services

7.Done!

if your having problems starting your computer for long enough before it

crashes then try starting in safe mode...
