Remote Procedure Call problem.

OK, I'm having a computer problem that's really kicking my ass and I don't have the first clue how to fix it, since it seems to be a problem with Windows XP I've never encountered before. Like every fifteen minutes or so, a window pops up informing me that Windows XP will be shutting down due to a Remote Procedure Call error in 60 second. I've never even heard of a RPC before now and I was wondering if anyone with more computer experience than I could clue me in on how to stop this from happening.
Help me, computer gods, you are my only hope.

I wasn't familiar with such threads considering the thread titles of the ones lists do no hint that they talk about my problem.

Yeah, at first we thought that it was a group of hackers screwing around. It turned out to be otherwise as reports started flowing in from around the world through the media.
You would be best to run that removal tool asap, as in many cases worms do more damage as time goes by. Nimda was notorious for that.
