When you get the shutdown message...
Go to; Start --> Run
enter; shutdown -a
This will halt the shutdown and give you a chance to Download the McAfee worm removal tool,
Stinger: http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger/ and install following patch for the RPC/RPCSS
Buffer Overflow Vulnerability that is addressed by Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-39
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=824146
Please read: http://www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp
You also need a FireWall. If you don't patch the PC and not use a FireWall then you will
just be re-infected.
I also suggest the installation of *ALL* MS Critical Updates ASAP.
I highly suggest that you DO get an AV package !
AVAST - http://www.avast.com/i_idt_1016.html - FREE
AVG - http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_dwnl_free.php - FREE
CA eTrust - http://www.my-etrust.com/microsoft/index.cfm - FREE for one year.

| Need Suggestions,
| My Windows XP system downloaded a virus when I installed
| a DSL network. Every time I log onto the system it gives
| me a system shutdown box and reboots the system in 1
| minute. Is there a virus program that can be downloaded to
| floppy and then used to reboot and clean an infected
| system?
