THAT IS A VIRUS!!!It is a new one, just discovered today Monday, August 11, 2003 at 7:56 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Mobile PC Doctor (52 messages posted) I'm going to guess that the messege you get on the box with the countdown says:"Windows must now restart because Remote Procedure Call Service terminated unexpectadly"? You need to check your PC for a file called msblast.exe , or anything with msblast in the name.It sends a messege out to whoever each time you boot up that your pc is on and it can crash your PC. You need to go to http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.blaster.worm.html and read it very carefully, because the worm may attempt to keep you from getting the patch needed from windowsliveupdate.com We were having the exact same problem as you, and now it has stopped after doing the fix, and yes, it goes right past your firewall.
