Connection to Internet

[James]

Every time I connect to the internet, I get an error
message saying to save work and that the computer will be
shut down in 1 minute by NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM . It says the
RPC (remote procedure call) was terminated unexpectadly.
This happens mostly just after ive connected. What can I
do to get it away? Is it a virus? PS THis reply is not
from the same pc. Thanks in advance.

To stop the reboots: Go to Start/Run and type in: services.msc. Scroll down
to Remote Procedure Call (RPC)/Recovery/First Failure/Restart the Service.

Then close Windows Explorer, run the edit on line 257 then run the patch
listed below it: http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
