Taken from modemhelp.net
RPC Errors. NT Authority. Blaster Worm. Etc.
As Windows Update is having issues I have added links to direct Microsoft
downloads for RPC patches. There is also a removal tool for the worm
Blaster, associated with this exploit. As a result of this, please feel free
to send your customers here so that they may patch their systems and remove
the worm. Signs that your computer is infected with this worm include
sluggishness, crashing, or the following message:
"This system is shutting down. Please save all work in progress and log off.
Any unsaved changed will be lost. This shutdown was initiated by NT
AUTHORITY\SYSTEM", and in a Message box you will see: "Windows must now
restart because the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service terminated
unexpectedly"
To make certain that you stay online while downloading the patch, if a
message appears saying that you will be shut down in 60 seconds and you are
running Windows XP, goto Start > Run > and use the command:
shutdown -a
This command will abort the shutdown and keep you downloading.
NOTE: THESE DOWNLOADS ARE DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK! Neither myself, your ISP,
nor anyone but yourself are responsible for any problems encountered with
the download and installation of either Microsoft patch.
