remote procedure call service

[rnichols@swbell.net]

Every time I go into my internet provider site which is
swbell.net. I use Yahoo as my search engine. The computer
has a message stating the system is shutting down
authorized by N T Authority/System. Remote Procedure Call
Service Terminated Unexpectantly. This message comes up
about 5 minutes after I go on to the web. What does this
mean and what can I do to stop it from happening?

Thank you

It means you probably have the Blaster Worm.

Apparently, your computer has an unwelcome visitor (VIRUS) known
as the WM32 Blaster/Lovsan WORM.

It entered the computer through your internet connection because the
"firewall"
was not properly enabled and essential critical updates were not installed
from
the Windows Update website. For instructions on fixing the problem, visit:

If your computer is constantly attempting to shutdown
or reboot, quickly go to:

Start > Run and type: CMD , and hit enter.
This opens the Command Prompt window.

Then type: shutdown -a , and hit enter.

This should halt the rebooting problem.

Then immediately turn-on Windows XP's built-in Firewall:
