Before connecting to the internet, go to Start, Run and enter SERVICES.MSC
Locate the RPC (Remote Procedure Call) Service and double click it. Go to
the Recovery tab. Change the options to Restart the Service. Then see
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_qr.htm#rpc for a small utility that will
remove the known variants of the Blaster worm and provide a link to the
Microsoft patch for this problem. Once complete, go back to Services and
set the RPC Recovery options back to Restart the Computer.
