somebody's got to be tech support

in this joint!

my computer's fucked. running windows XP. it's giving me
this error message that says my computer will be shut down
in 00:59 (and proceeds to countdown until it restarts my
computer) because of NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM

some sort of thing says that remote process call
unexpectedly terminated??

this has happened about 8 times in the past 30 minutes. my
computer was fine the last time i used it.

and sometimes it gives me a message that says something
about "generic host process"...

does it happen after you connect to the internet? or just
after you boot windows?

i don't like the sound of that remote process call thing,
sounds like an outside attacker or something (i've used
programs that let you remotely shut down someone's pc,
generally fuck around with it and send messages). do you
have a firewall installed and running when you connect to
the internet?

mine 'puter does this too! we need answers,
all i have to say is:
yeaygh... great times, especially when it causes you to lose
something you've spent hours on, and put your heart and soul
into!

and connect -- so i dont even have time to pour my heart and
soul into...:( i havent even had this computer a
year.....fuck pc. i'm never getting one again.

if i were you here is what i'd do

1. disconnedt the troubled pc from the internet by removing
any LAN or Phone cable from it.

2. Download kerio personal firewall using your alternative
pc.

3. Transfer the setup fileS to the infected pc and install
kerio on it.

4. If you don't have a virus scanner running then also
download AVG and set it up on the troubled pc.

5. Also i would recommend installing AD-Aware6 on it.

I want to build a virus that can wipe out all
computers. Is it possible? It would have to be crafty, like
aids.

I have winXP and I haven't yet had this problem. I also
have a firewall/router. Not sure if that makes a
difference. It does sound like a virus though. Hopefully I
don't get it, though I can just reload my ghost image.

Yes, this is a virus... it spread within the last couple
days. Disconnect that computer from the internet and flush
it for viruses if you can. Check security web sites to see
how to clean it effectively

when i've got my firewall on, it doesn't do this ever. funny
i never noticed until now..

If you have a router/firewall, shut off outside access to
port 135


 

offline Jazembo from The Earth ball on 2003-08-11 22:17 [#00818258]
Points: 2788 Status: Regular



ok, make sure you INSTALL AND RUN AD AWARE and AVG and
install the firewall BEFORE you reconnect to the internet :)

if it's a virus, Adaware won't do it.

norton antivirus probably, but I don't know.

Points: 2788 Status: Regular



if it is a virus then you are right , AD Aware wont do it.
It could be a piece of spyware or a trojan also. That is why
i think he should install all three programs just to make
sure all angles are covered, as we dont know what it is.
