If you're not using an NT based system, you aren't vulnerable to these attacks, anyway. :P

There is a very simple solution to this problem. A quick fix if the box has popped up is to run "shutdown -a" to abort the shutdown. |

DITCH INTERNET EXPLORER! See the future at http://www.mozilla.org Why? Well, you know to get Internet Explorer 7 your gonna need Longhorn And it has a popup blocker built in And is faster at connecting to the net And it has Google Search built in! What could be better? |

That wouldn't make a difference in this case. The 'pop up' that shuts the computer down isn't a web browser pop up.

That's still IE. Doesn't solve anything.

as you said - downloading a pop up stopper is about the only way to stop them on IE, other than stop going to porn sites, or sites with pop ups, in the first place! :p
alternatively, you can use the latest mozilla firebird browser- it has a built in popup blocker that you can configure (sincec some sites you visit can still work, if they use pop ups for logging in, for example). |

Link. Firefox (previously Firebird) rules. I use it, and now I hate having to use IE (like when I have to use it at at school). =) |

Ignore those others who suggested Mozilla. >.>
Here's a newer edition to IE that does the same thing as and if not better than Mozilla. http://www.myie2.com |

A crap browser with a popup blocker is no substitute for a superior browser with a popup blocker. |

Very funny. Not.
Stop living in the stone age and wake up to reality: IE is obsolete, no matter how much window-dressing you attach to it. |

Start -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services
In this list of things find "Remote Procedure Call", right-click and open it's Properties. Select the "Recovery" tab and set all ("First Fail", "Second Fail" and "Subsequent Fail") to "Take No Action". Then click "OK".
Do the same for "Remote Procedure Call Locator". This should stop the stupid message. Provided you're using an NT based system (including 2000 and XP).
