System Shutdown initiated by NTAuthority/Sys

[DBPhillips]

I am a novice. But when on the net I will get a System
Shutdown message that says that Windows must now restart
because remote procedure call service terminated
unexpectedly. I can not do anything to stop it. It is a
big hassle. Any comments or help?? Thanks

The WORM and I am not talking the person that coded this thing has made its
way into your system. See the following link for details on how to remove
it.

The same thing was happening to me and this is how I found
the "CURSED WORM". Start/Programs/Accesories/System
Tools/System Information/Start Up Programs. Then look for
a program (probably hiding down out the bottom) that says
MSblaster32.exe. Thats it! THE WORM! Try to go on Windows
Update and your PC will shut down! I lucked out and had a
friend that had a fix and the Patch on disk. Good Luck!
