I have a major problem with my Win Xp Pro.
After windows have been running for a while i get a system
failor message.
And the computer restarts it self.

Remote procedure call (RPC) was closed at the wrong way.
How can it be?
i don´t even know what program or else that is?
Please can somone help me?

Andreas;
You most likely have a worm W32.Blaster.Worm
DISCONNECT the subject computer from any network IMMEDIATELY.

If necessary to stop the reboot process:
Start/Run
Type "shutdown -a" ENTER

Install or enable a firewall IMMEDIATELY, before connecting to the
internet:

VERY IMPORTANT to follow ALL steps, closing ports or installing the
patch is NOT enough.
Download the patch and regedit referenced in the article below.
You may need to do this at an uninfected computer and burn to CD or
save on floppies.
Each file is small enough to fit on a floppy.

Follow this to clean and protect your computer:

After this is resolved prevent similar occurrences by installing ALL
Critical Updates from Windows Update.
Keep antivirus up to date and run at least weekly.
Install or enable a firewall.

Jupiter - the MS 03-039 patch is pushed by the MS blaster site that you give
as the last URL in this process.

I don't know whether Kelly and Doug have revised their script to hit the new
patch or not, but if not, the newer patch is important to suggest in any
blaster complaint. (looking at the page and the script, it appears not.)

We should be pushing the MS 03-039 patch, as Microsoft is at their blaster
information site.
 
The script has, in fact, been revised!
