RPC

[Tinker]

I am having this problem on my winXP build 2600. I have
done all patching and updating. The RPC is set to Automatic. Can anyone
help. I can boot to windows it
happens only when i go online. My connections disconnects after a few
minutes and the prompt below is
displayed.
System Shutdown:




The shut down was initiated by NT Authority/System. The window must now
restart because the RPC (Remote Procedure Call) service will terminated
immediately.

There are several thousand posts on this subject. See
www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_qr.htm#rpc for a removal tool and a link to the
Microsoft patch you need to prevent it from happening in the future.

You have to remove the virus. See the Recovery section of

Hi,

This new worm that invokes the Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
is spreading fast....

There is an excellent article at:

What it is and how to get rid of it!
