When you find the answer, please share it. I have it on 32 computers and it random pops back in. Every flipping computer is updated, virus checked and scanned.

Try running the blaster fix even through the virus
software is up to date. Blaster causes these errors and
virus software even up to date does nto always fix it.

You are not the only one. I am also having this error - but not constantly,
only now and then. I would also be happy to get an explanation.

I've run everything at these machines and it still creeps in. I've told people its easier to reformat and reinstall instead of trying to trouble shoot this anymore

yes I agree with the other reply, you have a virus, its a
clone of the Welch or mblast that went around earlier this
year. Its better to download a virus scanner like Avast!
from www.tucows.com. Disconnect from the net before
installing it, it will clear it then re-connect and get it
updated automatically. It has something to do with a 24\7
or broadband connection .Cant mention who for
obvious reasons!!...~smiles~. Also put on a good firewall
such as Armor2net from the same site and a descent
programme that kills trojans and worms which cant always
be detected with a virus scanner. If you can visit
www.ntlworld.com, there are patches there that should work
on any pc, they worked for me first time

I had the same problem due to a virus - Blaster Worm.
Have you tried the following link?
http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp
Free tools to check if you are infected and remove the worm are available from most security software vendors.

I use Symantec and check and update on regular basis. Are
you suggesting that this virus is not detected or known by
them?

I have run all known solutions and virus removal I can
find and still no solution.

Thanks.
