When I get online after being on a while a message pops up that says "The sysytem is shutting down, this shut down was initiated by NT Authority/System. Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Service terminated unexpectedly. What causes this and what can I do to fix this????????????

Make sure you have the latest security patches for Windows through Windows Update. Scan your computer for trojans using a program like The Cleaner from Moosoft. Get a firewall program.
This is happening to everybody today. The exploit was made public a little bit ago, and apparently it is being taken advantage of. |
