"Remote Procedure Call" -Shutdown

[BlankPro]

Hello!

I am about ready to pull my hair out... I have to type fast before I get a shutdown...

Does anyone know anything about "Remote Procedure Calls?" I keep getting a message pop-up that tells me my computer is going to shut down because it failed or something. It happens only when I am online. It started randomly today, for seemingly no purpose. I am running WinXP Pro and use only a dial-up internet connection. I am enclosing the message that keeps popping up as a jpeg.

Anyone have any ideas!?

Thanks!

ok, I got it. DO NOT do a system restore first. I undid my last restore and found the sneaky wanker waiting for me. I2, if you did a system restore, undo it and you should find it...

Thanks lobo for the direction!
