Quick rundown, every 36 uptime hours, RPC decides close on me.('The Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). ...Event ID: 7034'-Event viewer). Did a clean install 5 weeks ago because the problem plagued my old install, and it's back. Other symptoms after the crash include, limited networking capabilities, inability to copy and paste, and inability to drag and drop icons. Done a deep system scan with Avast! and malware scans with SpybotS&D.
WinXP Professional 5.1 Service Pack 2 (Build #2600)
Any know what might be wrong?

How long after your new install did it take to come back?

About..say 4 weeks, a possibly a few times before that, but at more than 36 hours of uptime.

Meh. Almost everything I've seen about this error indicates a virus . It's the calling card of the Blaster worm, but can be an indicator of some others as well. Fuck Avast, get norton or avg or pretty much anything else. Except for mcaffee.. fuck them too.

I thought so to, but every time I did a scan specifically for the blaster worm the results returned nothing. Could it possibly be a hardware issue?

AVAST IS LESS WELL KNOWN THAN NORTON, AVG OR MCAFEE AND THEREFORE LIKELY HAS FEWER VIRII WITH RESISTANCES TO IT.
ALSO, YOU ARE A MORON FOR USING ANY ONE OF THE USELESS FOUR, GET OUT.

'I did a scan specifically for the blaster worm'
SPECIFICALLY, also did not state that I used Avast for that scan.
'AVAST IS LESS WELL KNOWN THAN NORTON, AVG OR MCAFEE AND THEREFORE LIKELY HAS FEWER VIRII WITH RESISTANCES TO IT.'
Isn't it better that fewer viruses have resistance to it?

OH SIR YOUR ENGLISH SKILLS ARE IMPECCABLE I WAS CALLING YOU A MORON FOR TAKING >>4`S ADVICE, WHICH WAS TO LOSE AVAST (MILDLY USEFUL), AND REPLACE IT WITH NORTON OR AVG (NEITHER OF WHICH DO FUCK ALL).

Avast also doesn't have the resources Norton, AVG, or McAfee do, so it likely knows about fewer viruses than any of those.

DAMN I SUPPOSE THAT'S WHY I'M 3 TIMES MORE PRODUCTIVE ON MY DEBIAN, IT'S BECAUSE THE FSF AND THE GNU ARE BIG COMPANIES MAKING MONEY GET OUT DOUBLE NIGGER
I was just replying to the 'It's the calling card of the Blaster worm, but can be an indicator of some others as well.' section of >>4 's post. Didn't switch off from Avast. Heh.
