windows keeps shutting down

[Monty]

My computer keeps shutting down with this message: Window
is shutting down because the Remote Procedure Call has
been unexpectantely disconnected. It also says something
about this was initiated by NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM. Help

See www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 257, Left Column for a
small utility that will remove all, currently, known variants of the
W32.Blaster.Worm, and other instances of another virus that can piggyback in
with it. When prompted, definitely download the Microsoft Patch that is
offered (you have 32 bit XP). Also keep your Antivirus software updated and
scan your system regularly.

If you are having trouble staying up to get the patch and
removal tool:
When the shutdown prompt appears,go to start/run and
type shutdown -a to abort the shutdown process to allow you
to stay up and online.

There are 2 more variants out now.
The exes for the variants are teekids.exe and
penis32.exe
Kelly's script kills all 3 variants.
