Computer shuts down by itself

[Jorge A Galvez]

Please I need help with this problem. Every time I go on
line, a few minutes after I sign in, I get a message
saying:
"THE SYSTEN IS SHUTTING DOWN, INDICATED BY NT AUTHORITY
/SYSTEM, REMOTE PROCEDURE CALL ( RPC ).
This happens only while I'm on line.
Thank you
Jorge.
