    "NT AUTHORITY SYSTEM" is shutting down my computer when online

    Maybe someone on here can help me....My laptop automatically shuts down and restarts and says that a remote call procedure has failed and it has to shut down. It says the program that does it is NT AUTHORITY SYSTEM. When my laptop isn't online, it works fine and doesn't shut down..It only works when I am on the internet.

    I'm using Windows XP..Has anybody had this problem and know how to fix it...If I didn't have another computer, I'd be fucked because I wouldn't even be able to ask for help online.

          This exploit is more serious than just shutting down the PC..

                I JUST got done battling this shit. I didnt know what the hell was going on. I almost reinstalled the OS because everything I tried didnt work so I figured things were beyond fucked.

                I noticed my other machines were having the same problem, so it was not isolated to my main machine and was not virus or worm related.

                I noticed shit didnt happen when I would disconnect from cable modem.

                Little more probing, its a god damn denial of service attack.

                Im on Comcast. The only way I could get it to stop was to switch from my bridge to a router. The MS patch didnt work either.

                Im guessing someone is having a good time today.

                  I got a box that's running beta .net and there's no patch for it but I found that setting the firewall takes care of the attacks

                    Damn, you guys too.

                    I started getting that error about 3 hours ago, got shutdown twice, then I started updating from MS... then got shutdown during the update...

                    So I dl'ed the update unplugged my network cable and installed.

                    I think there was 3 critical updates I hadn't installed yet.

                    I guess it shows you that you should install those as soon as they come out.

                    Glad to see I'm not the only one though

                      if you receive "remote procedure call (rpc) service terminated unexpectedly" messages that keep rebooting your comp, try this:

                      1. install a firewall. dont bother blocking IPs. block ports being used by RPC - UDP and TCP (more below)
                      2. install MS bugfix. (hell yea I'd do that if it didnt say "service pack 2 required")
                      3. control panel -> administrative tools -> services -> remote procedure call (RPC). right click, choose properties. go to recovery tab. choose "no action" for all boxes.

                      edit: this should read: 1 OR 2 OR 3. either will fix it.

                              here's the way to completely remove the worm:

                              Windows XP:

                              go to start -> run

                              copy paste this in run:

                              reg delete HKLM\Software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run /v "windows auto update" /f

                              then reboot,

                              after that, do a search and locate the file msblast.exe and delete it..

                              that concludes the removal procedure (trust me, I had to do it on 10 computers.)



                              Windows 2000:

                              .. it might not crash the RPC like windows XP asking you to shut down, but it can give you problems with mmc.exe (microsoft management console) and also the hole which allows anyone to install any script to create users or do anything on your computer.

                              The reg deletion command mentionned above doesn't work with windows 2000, so you'll have to go manually with regedit to the key hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\curr entversion\run and then right click on the windows auto update key ... then delete it. Reboot, delete the msblast.exe file like said up there and you're done.

                              This exploit ain't no joke, it's dangerous

                                      yes, the exploit

                                      but the one that does the attacks is using a virus that infected many computers today

                                        which is what im saying, the registry key I mentionned restarts the virus' process each time you reboot, so you gotta delete the reg key AND the file msblast.exe

                                          Unreal! Earlier today I did a netstat -a and noticed a lot of connections to .mil computers. So I downloaded Active Ports and I'll be damned if a dozen or so msblast.exe were open.

                                          Is msblast.exe a microsoft thing being exploited? Or is it a trojan/worm? I renamed it to .bak, and sure enough, it wasn't using up anymore ports.

                                          Wonder how I caught this, I am pretty careful.....
                                          Anymore info/links would be appreciated!

                                            Is msblast.exe a microsoft thing being exploited? Or is it a trojan/worm? I renamed it to .bak, and sure enough, it wasn't using up anymore ports.

                                            Wonder how I caught this, I am pretty careful.....
                                            Anymore info/links would be appreciated!
                                            kill it, this ain't a microsoft file, this is the actual worm.

                                              Do you know how it is being installed on computers? I searched google but came up with nada. Must be pretty new.
                                              I should have taken a screenshot of my netstat command. After seeing all the .mil computers I was hooked up to, I reckoned something was wrong.

                                                heh, thats the thing, by opening port 135 UDP ... the attacker can send mostly anything he wants and can actually scripts some things ... most of the time it's the worm being uploaded... but it shouldn't do anything else.... well for me it just installed the worm... I removed it.. and said........ FUCK YOU HACKER!

                                                                                  I've just downloaded and installed the W2000 patch so maybe that will do the trick, but what I do not get is

                                                                                  1, how / where I got the virus in the first place (I am on a dial-up) - does it have to be email? and

                                                                                  2, why I am still getting the svchost errors (maybe the patch really will have fixed that though I suspect it doesn't work quite so nicely as that)

If you want to be more believable (so the FTC doesn't laugh in your face a second time) I suggest making up SEVERAL fake names on that board and have them all agree with each other.

                                                                                    at least your making posts at night to keep us all thinking you're here more than just the weekend.

Your company, Standard Internet makes a practice of adding this sort of exploit to unwary surfer's computers. Your site, stopannoyingpopups.com installs a trojan winpup32.exe, so you should be an expert at telling people how to avoid this sort of scumware.

Stupidly, i gave it the "i'll sort it out tommorrow" attitude. So i try to use my computer this morning. Within a minute or two of connecting to the internet, my computer shuts down. So i restart, same thing. Again and again. Luckily, i back up all my shit just in case anything like this happens. Anyways. Got my brother over to fix it all up, which he did. But yeah, when you get these warnings, update that shit ASAP. Not pleasant what these things can do.

I went over and set up her computer for her cable modem.. and as soon sa I put it online I stated getting that shut down message... Best Buy did the intial set up for her, and I assume they infected it when they set it up... but it's pretty bad when you buy a PC from a national chain store and it comes ifeced with a virus.

                                                                                            Windows XP:

                                                                                            go to start -> run

                                                                                            copy paste this in run:

                                                                                            reg delete HKLM\Software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run /v "windows auto update" /f

                                                                                            then reboot,

                                                                                            after that, do a search and locate the file msblast.exe and delete it..

                                                                                            that concludes the removal procedure (trust me, I had to do it on 10 computers.)



                                                                                            Windows 2000:

                                                                                            .. it might not crash the RPC like windows XP asking you to shut down, but it can give you problems with mmc.exe (microsoft management console) and also the hole which allows anyone to install any script to create users or do anything on your computer.

                                                                                            The reg deletion command mentionned above doesn't work with windows 2000, so you'll have to go manually with regedit to the key hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\curr entversion\run and then right click on the windows auto update key ... then delete it. Reboot, delete the msblast.exe file like said up there and you're done.

                                                                                            This exploit ain't no joke, it's dangerous

                                                                                              For windows XP

                                                                                              After many reboots.

                                                                                              Enable your XP firewall, this will stop more attacks on your system.

                                                                                              Check your systems for "msblast.exe" -- if you have this file you going to know about it damn soon.

                                                                                              If you do, do this.

                                                                                              1. Get the MS update NOW - credical update 823980

                                                                                              Go to regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > software > Microsoft > windows > currentversion > run >

                                                                                              If you see a entry called "msblash.exe" delete it.
                                                                                              EXIT

                                                                                              Press Crtl + Alt + Del -- windows task manager will popup, find msblast.exe and right click > "End Process".

                                                                                              Load Windows Explorer > Search C:\windows\ for "msblast.exe" -- there should be 2 files. Delete them both.

                                                                                              If you have it you are given 60 seconds and it will shut down you machine.

                                                                                              This worm is new and it's launch date is the 12th, but it's out now at a computer near you.

                                                                                              Hope this helps someone. :D

                                                                                                  However, it takes awhile, but it spawns a new name, when it pops up the RPC crash box, i go to the processes tab and I see cmd.exe running.

                                                                                                  Then norton finds the virus again, except this time its called like TFT53495 or something like that...

                                                                                                  I'm at work right now, and i'm trying to get my girlfriend to run through some more steps, I used to connect to my computer at home from work....but that'll stop now since i configured the firewall at home (just now did that)

                                                                                                  Any updates on this for permanent fixes?
