Desperate -
When did the 60 second shutdown notice occur? Is that recently, like
yesterday or the day before for instance? If this is still occurring, then
it must be cleaned and dealt with.
There was also a Blaster worm (similar to Sasser) that was a big issue last
summer, but there had been MS Updates addressing the vulnerability since
then. I would hope that you do check with Windows Updates regularly and
don't wait until something drastic happens to do it.
If you can, see the following:
NT Authority\System Error Message: "This system is shutting down. Windows
must now restart because the Remote Procedure Call (RPC) service terminated
unexpectedly."
