Erm, recently, I just got this dialog box saying that an error occured and it'll shutdown the system in 30 seconds      One weird thing about this is that this also happens at other computers in our neighbors. It usually happens the ti'me you just got connected to the NET

wth is this?

Could be one of the variants of the sasser worm; type 'shutdown -a' after selecting 'Run' from the start menu to abort the shutdown.  B)

And try to weed out the virus of course.

yeah my guess would be virus oin your computer but have no other ideas

[tehsky]

I had this and I found it was called the Blaster worm... and as LightSabre said, it could also be a variant of the Sasser worm...

That's a link that contains a removal tool of the Blaster worm... still, you could just google the Sasser worm.

Run windows updates & an antivirus prog, that should fix it.

[ShadowLink64]

I have gotten that error before. It's not a virus or anything, it is when windows xp accidently erm.. kills one of your services needed to run the kernel. It's basically the "On Error GoTo" equivilent in vb

If it happens again, your comp may have cobwebs. just kidding

[xx_WLT_xx]

Hmm, the box is different from the one shown when you kill a windows process. Anyway, my father also said that there is no removal for it but you need to run the fix as soon as the box shows up

my friend got that he had to have a service on his pc and all his data got wiped hope it doesn't come to that though

[Le Chango]

ya that happened to me cept it was a minute, I just booted the comp back up and used my AV program

[Gargar]

yep its a virus I'm sure of it because I had it and had to download ths special thing that fixed it eventualy if you dont get it fixed it messes up ur intier computer  I forgot the name of the virus though. lol

[dolphinbomb]

If you have a firewall, you should be fine. It won't work with Windows XP's firewall on (at least not on my comp.)

[Xiphos]

bro sorry to tell u, but u have coolwebsearch in your pc, or one of it's variants, also when u get rid of it, it will corrupt your winsock, so get ready for some major fixing,

I know this because I have had every type of everything oin my pc,

[Cooliodoc]

Have you tried setting back your computer clock like a day when it happens, that ususally helps to give you some ti'me. might not work but hopefully it will.

[Dark_Eco_Freak]

Yeah, that setting date thing sounds like the System Restore Function. You pick a date when your computer is working perfectly, then run it when it's not and it will bring your computer back to the ti'me when it worked

[Xiphos]

no in the 30 seconds u have, boot the pc in safe mode, then u have to edit your registry(I don't recommend thid is u don't know what u are doin) or u can use norton to clean your system, make sure u don't corrupt your winsock, or your tcp/ip because that is messed up.

[Cataliste]

Jesus, u people no not what you speak of.  This is the Blaster Worm.  Pure and si'mple, I get it everyti'me I connect to the internet(before I installed the patch)  The easiest way to get rid of it is to boot like normal.  Before connecting to the internet do the 3 finger salute (CTRL + ALT + DEL) and kill the blaster.exe process, connect to the internet, goto http://www.symantec.com and DL the  virus removal tool.  Then goto http://www.microsoft.com and get the full-fledged patch.  Then reboot you system and everything will be cured.

[Xiphos]

that works to.

[Freidmont]

Or..go on another pc, and burn a disk with:

Blaster Fix
XP SP1
Updated Antivirus Soft

afterwards go online & update 'doze

[xx_WLT_xx]

lol, I figured out that I can't get the Blaster patch if it IS from Microsoft cause I use w*** WinXP.......

(I heard Microsoft feeds your BIOS with junk, much like Chernobyll, if you got pirate Microsoft software...)

[Cooliodoc]

well then, just get the virus remover that'l do for now then hehe

[Evan]

Cata, if that dont work, ill be off of codex for long ti'me.


Oh, cata, what if you DONT HAVE BLASTER AS A PROCESS?  (damn, you wanna know the irony guys?  I got this CENSORED ing virus AFTER I downloaded Kasperky, WHAT THE CENSORED ?!!?!?!?!?!?!!??!



I WILL BE INACTIVE FOR AN UNDETERMINED AMOUNF OF Ti'mE!
