I'm was just working with my 15 year old niece in NJ, through IM, to
help her keep her WinXP PC from rebooting every minute. She had 2 copies
of msblast.e x e on her PC. One was delete-able the other we had to
reboot into safe mode to delete. After deleting the last e x e  her unit
is NOT rebooting. I have since had her update her unit and disable DCom.

Amazing how kids never listen to you when you ask them to update their
PCs..

Hi All --

My cousin recently got a nasty RPC/DCOM worm and she cannot use 
Windows
update because when the RPC is shutdown, SYSTEM automatically initiates
a shutdown of the computer as you are all aware of. What is the best
solution to keep data files intact while removing this worm? I have
tried going to the Registry Run, no entries ar ethere besides legitimate
startup stuff. Any suggestions?
