Step #1

The first thing you should do is enable Windows XP's built-in Firewall:

1. In Control Panel, double-click Networking and Internet Connections, and
    then click Network Connections.
2. Right-click the connection on which you would like to enable ICF, and
    then click Properties.
3. On the Advanced tab, click the box to select the option to Protect my
    computer or network.

Step #2:

Visit http://www.dougknox.com/xp/scripts_desc/xp_msblast.htm and follow
the instructions.

| 2 minutes goes by and a message comes up.....
| NT AUTHORITY \ SYSTEM
| Windows must now restart because the
| Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service

| for my business at all.
| What is going on ???
| Do you have a fix??
| Can I erase or modify the " NT Authority \System "??
| 
| The ISP's seem to be working fine. It is just that the
| computer shuts off right in the middle of their functions.
| For no aparent reason.
