Remote Procedure Call

[B.Zaitchik]

I am receiveing a pop-up window which is titled "System
Shutdown". The text reads "Initiated by NT Authority
System" Remote Procedure Call service terminated
unexpectantly.
Then the computer shuts down in less than 1 minute. This
continually occurs. How can I change a setting so that
this problem stops?

Sounds like you have the Blaster worm. Do a full system scan with the most
recent virus updates; if you do have Blaster, check out Symantec's removal
tool at http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/FixBlast.exe.

first you need to get rid of the "blaster" virus
scan and clean your computer with newest av data files
turn on the firewall to keep from getting reinfected
update your windows for all security

I take it that you have no idea what anti-virus software

is? You should get one.

Greetings --

If you connected the PC to the Internet without having first
installed the KB824146 Hotfix, without having first installed an
antivirus application with current virus definition files, and before
enabling a firewall, you're very likely to get infected from any of
the thousands of PCs on the Internet that are constantly broadcasting
the Blaster and/or Welchia worms. It only takes a few seconds of
exposure.

To stay on-line long enough to get the necessary updates, patches,
and removal tools, click Start > Run, and enter "shutdown -a" when the
next RPC countdown begins. This will abort the shut down. Also, make
sure you've enabled a firewall before starting, to preclude any more
intrusions while getting the updates/patches/tools.
