Remote Procedure Call (RPC) error message shuts down windows

L

When using MS Windows Update, if I launch another program
while downloading or installing a Critical Update, I
receive an error messag: NT Authority/System ... Remote
Procedure Call (RPC) will shut down your system - and
then it counts down from 45 seconds giving me a chance to
save my data.

After I restart my system and I go back to complete the
download/install without trying to launch another
program, it works fine.

Any insight would be appreciated.

You may be infected. Check for the blaster worm and any other nasty stuff
on your system. Use products like AdAware, SpyBot Search and Destroy, Pest
Patrol and employ a good anti-virus program and firewall.
