Deletes system files that lead the computer to malfunction. It appears that this worm replaces the RPC Service because after infection the service is not recognized anymore as MS-Windows Service (see: MSConfig)

The Blaster Worm. Executes "shutdown.exe" with a 60 second timeout when connecting to the internet. Download the Norton exe file from www.norton.com

When u get the RPC error that shuts ur comp after 60 secs, type shutdown -a in start run. This supresses shutdown of ur comp. save ur files. reboot, and update ur system with patch.

sounds alot like one that once infected my computer, mine was called msblast.exe i found it through windows search. killed it by deactivating it in task manager then quickly deleting it before it launched itself again. it will give you approximately 5-10 seconds to delete it before it re-launches. likes to shutdown the computer alot.

Just to a "shutdown -a" to stop the shutdown while you remove it
