well your comp's been infected by the msblast virus which
seems to have affected most comps that use windows xp.
well.... u cud follow this..
1) UNPLUG YOUR MODEM. This should allow you free time
to make some changes to your computer (after you reboot,
if your RPC window pops up and requires you to do so).
2) When you are not connected to the internet, go
to "Control Panel," "Performance and
Maintenance," "Administrative Tools," open "Services,"
right click on "Remote Procedure Call,"
click "Properties," click the "Recovery" tab, at "First
Failure," "Second Failure," and "Subsequent Failures,"
select "Take No Action."
3) Turn on your modem and reconnect to the internet.
4) You've probably run out of time reading this before
your computer has rebooted, so get back to this message
and read from step 5 on. At this stage, you are still
infected with the msblast virus, but your computer will
not reboot on you.
5) This virus is very clever and has disabled several
buttons on the web and on your computer that would
otherwise allow you to disable it, so you've got to go
around the back door.
6) From support.microsoft.com, download:
WindowsXP-KB823980-x86-ENU.exe
(this is for XP; there is a Windows 2000 version
also...try a search on the Microsoft Support
website...plugging in this file name should bring you to
the same page as the security patches for the other
Windows versions). If you don't manage to find the patch
there, try http://www.filemirrors.com/tops.src?perpage=30
u might find it there...
7) Download and install.
8) Reboot.
9) Now you should be able to have a little more
functionality in your computer. If you havent' done so
already, enable your firewall:
"Control Panel," then "Network and Internet Connections,"
then "Network Connections," right click on your active
internet connection, select "Properties," click on
the "Advanced" tab, and check the box enabling firewall
protection.
10) Use a virus scanner n scan your comp. You'll find the
msblast.exe file. it'll state that
it is non-cleanable. Click the "delete" button to delete
the virus.
11) to be sure, search all hidden files and folders too
to make sure no msblast.exe exists. Your comp shud be
virus free. n make sure u keep checkin the microsoft site
for more updates n patches.
