My computers (all three of them)are all running windows
xp home edition. While i am online all of them will begin
to shutdown in some random amount of time and give me a
countdown with an error message that says:

Windows must now restart because the Remote Procedure
Call service terminated unexpectedly.

I have no idea how to solve this problem and it is
essential that i have these computers running properly as
they are my business computers.

Thanks for any help, Chris.

It sounds like your system is infected with the Blaster Worm.

Use Start> Run and type in
shutdown -a
to abort the shutdown.

Then see the references below for more information about what it is, how to
remove it and how to protect your system against future infection.
