keep getting remote procedure call error. Any clues as to
what is causing this.It happens every 10 min and shuts
the computer down.

Scan for Blaster Worm and Welchia Worm with your
antivirus program.

You got it.

 

[Ken]

You have the Blaster worm virus you need the patch from MS
for your OS.

 

[Raoul]

You need patch MS03-026 for starters.

Hi Mark,

To stop the reboots: Go to Start/Run and type in: services.msc. Scroll down
to Remote Procedure Call (RPC)/Recovery/First Failure/Restart the Service.

Close Windows Explorer, run the edit on line 257 which includes the prompt
for the patch once your system has been cleaned.

This script removes all variants of the W32.Blaster.Worm (original, b, c, d
and e) and will inform you whether or not the patch is already installed.
