Or, you could just unplug the network cable or internet connection, log in
as admin and see if you can disable the service there.

However, disabling the RPC service is not the usual recommended fix and can
break some things your computer wants or needs to use.

>From another virus free computer, go to www.microsoft.com/security or
www.microsoft.com/technet/security and look for a list of Incident links
that includes a link about how to deal with the Blaster worm. Follow those
instructions.
