It says Windows must now restart because the Remote Procedure Call service terminated unexpectedly
This shutdown was initiated by the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Help!!!!

That sounds alot like it would have been achieved through a trojan horse.
but that would just be speculation on my part.

temp fix..
in your control panel, go to administrative tools then to components services. then under the folder on the left you will see something that says Services ( local )
then on the right hand side scroll down to the "remote procedure call" highlight it right click and go to properties, then you can choose what happens when your rpc has a problem. it is automatically set to reboot in 30 seconds or something, but u can set it to do nothing or to run a program or a command line .
are you running any p2p file sharing pgms?
do a virus scan as soon as you are operational..

you've probably got a trojan worm. the same shit happened to my comp almost a year ago.
get norton anti-virus and clean that shit up. Or, look for a file like this: "SOFUNNY.EXE" or "msdos34"
actually i'm not completely sure on the msdos one - i know it starts with msdos because it's disguised as a system file, but it isn't. it definitely ends with a two-digit number.

Holy SHIT, I went through the EXACT same thing today, drove me to near tears.
I unchecked ''allow remote help'' and ''automatic updates'', and it's fine now.
I can't believe we had the same problem. Cosmic... I thought God hated me and me alone.

[giginger] That's where it's sending info and receiving it from.
[giginger] Created a new firewall rule to stop anything at that address.

This appears to be a new security issue for the loveable ol' Microsoft. Get the patch here asap:
http://microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/te...
and all will be well.

Who'd have thought that WinME would have a benefit, eh?

thats the only thing winMe has going for it. It never seems to have these strange security holes. Proly because no one wants to fuck up computers running winME because they feel sorry for people who use it. that and winME is plenty fucked up without any outside help.

I've never gotten windows' security patches, and my computer has never been killed by any such thing. And just get symantec ghost, do a clean install with all your needed programs and then make a ghost image. Now I just have to install one things rather than 5 million things.

again, i would recommend that you download the emergency rescue disks on a remote computer (requres 7 free floppys), and boot with it. Don't know if it will fix it, but i have seen it deal with worse problems. If it still fucks up, try the Windows XP rebiuld-thingy on the Windows XP boot cd

another thing to to do is to disconnect from the internet, enable a firewall then reconnect. This should resolve it enough for you to download the patch as it seems to be going for open ports
