You need to go to Windows Update and download the RPC patch that has been
available for several weeks now.

And then you need to update your Anti-Virus software and run a full system
scan. A worm (virus) known by several names (LoveSan, Blaster and
MSBlaster) has infected your computer.

You can also use the W32.Blaster.Worm Removal tool from Symantec (Norton
Anti-Virus)
