I am wondering why a "rpl call" 'unknown error' or
something comes up with a window on my screen after 5 min
or so when using messenger or hotmail site. The window
then says it will restart the computer and to save all
work before 40 sec timer.

It can't be closed or cancelled or end task in the task
manager. This doesn't just happen on my computer but about
three more at my school.

My school and I use Bigpond internet service and I think
its an error related to this provider.

Is this true or is it just an error in messenger/hotmail.
Can it be fixed.
PS Its not a virus because I have Norton Systemworks 2004
corp. and it came up with nothing.

Are you sure it's 'rpl' and not 'rpc'.
Have you downloaded the blaster fix yet.
