Default Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Problem

I keep getting an error come up when I boot up PC. Basically there is a problem with the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) and the service terminated unexpectedly and forces a re-boot. I didn't have time to write down all the error message before it reboots but there was something else about NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM

Hope someone can help

I've just found the error message and this is what it says:-

"System Shutdown
This shutdown was initiated by NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM Windows must now restart because the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service terminated unexpectedly."

Hi there, if you can boot up in Safe Mode, log on as the administrator and do the following:
  1. Click on Start
  2. Click on Run
  3. Type "services.msc" (without quotes) and press enter
  4. In the list locate Remote Procedure Call and double click on it
  5. In the startup type drop down make sure "Automatic" is selected.
  6. Hit Apply
  7. Hit Ok
  8. Exit and reboot into Normal Mode.

Thanks will try that

I'm reading quite a few webpages that say it could be a Worm causing it.

Yesterday I downloaded and installed TCPOptimizer and am wondering by changing some settings to increase the speed of my internet it's messed things up
