Remote Procedure Call-System Shutdown

[rwfkdf]

I've installed the beta version, scanned my system and
then re-booted. Everthing comes up, but I get a system
shutdown notice stating that the Remote Procedure Call
service terminated unexpectedly. I was refered to the MS
security-incident site because it was the "blaster" virus
and to go into task manager and stop the msblast.exe.
That file does not exist on my system. I'm running the
full blown McAffee protection suite. What do I do
next?????

Thanks

Get the windows patch MS03-026 from Microsoft.
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

Patch Info:

And get a Statefull Packet Inspection (SPI) Firewall,
either hardware which is better; like D-link or linksys,
or software; like Zonalarm, which is free.

It is not the worm blaster virus. There is no blast.exe

on my system. I have the latest update of the McAfee
firewall, Spam Blocker and virus scan. Restore will not
work because half way through it, the system shutsdown.
What else can I try? Thanks!

Could be Sasser instead if this happens only when
connected to the internet. A sasser attack will shutdown
the PC even if it does not succeed. Turn on your firewall
if running XP or get the free version of ZoneAlarm from
Zone Labs.
