This is evidence of what is called an "autorooter" trojan. It probably
came in through your RPC ports. This attack has already been seen
against the vulnerability described in MS03-026.

You need to run your anti-virus and anti-spyware programs to identify
this trojan and begin to remove it. But disconnect from the Internet
immediately to prevent the hacker from accessing your machine from the
Internet and possibly installing other trojans and malware. Once they
are in and your machine "phones home", the game is up, so move quickly.

Worst case, you have to do a clean reinstall to rid all vestiges of
programs that compromise your system security.
