How do you disable RPC service?

Hey I need some help I'm repairing a friends computer, and he has some viruses on there. I'm trying to clean it out, but Windows Xp won't allow me to do it. It always got a window coming up telling me that the computer has to restart and something about the RPC. I went tru ''My Computer%26gt;Manage'' then went in services to disable it. But I still got that message. I would like to know how can I completely get rid of that message so I can scan his computer to get rid of the virus(es)?

How do you disable RPC service?hp

Since your friend's computer is infected by viruses, then you should boot Wndows XP in Safe Mode. In this way, 32-bit programs are prohibited from execution, including the viruses. From there, try to see if you can scan for viruses using the installed antivirus program. Otherwise, you can try to see if you can disable the RPC service from within Safe Mode.

The RPC service can be accessed from Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Services - Remote Procedure Call (RPC). Double click on the service to open it, go to the Recovery tab, then select ''Take No Action'' from the drop-down menu in each of the three categories.

Why doesn't Acer Computers change their name to ';Deucer';?

I bought a nice looking Desktop from Wal-Mart with a 17'' widescreen monitor. In less then 2 weeks the computer had all kids of problems.

Also, the monitor had a green line running vertically through the screen.

I got a warranty repair request in for the computer and screen and they give me the adress to send it to. Then I get a package back from them saying that they're returning the peripherals that they don't need to repair the computer. When I told them that they were suppose to repair the monitor also I was told that it has to be actualy sent to another adddress. I have to pay for the shipping myself!!

Hilariously, when I first called the customer support line I casually asked the woman what kind of computers they use. She says ''HP''!!

How bad is it when a company doesn't even use their own equipment?

I guess the lesson is never buy a computer from Wal-Mart.

So again I ask, why don't they change their name to ''Deucer''. It would be much more accurate.

You are just one of the unlucky ones.

Acer has a very good quality record considering how inexpensive a lot of their machines are.

The reason Acer does not use their own PC's is because they are a Personal Computer manufacturer and do not do large corporate servers.

Having a bad experience with an online company, what should I do?

I ordered a gaming computer in late December from an online company that specializes in such. When I received it on Jan. 8th, everything appeared to be fine at first. After I installed some games, they wouldn't play correctly. After about 10 minutes into a game, it would suddenly reboot or freeze up. I tried and tested many things to get it to work.

Eventually, out of frustration, I sent it back under warranty to have it repaired by that same company. Here it is, Jan 31st and I still have not received my computer. I've called several times. The first time, 1 week ago, they told me no one had even looked at my computer yet. The second time the guy seemed confused as to what I was asking about. The third time (about 10 mins ago), they said it was ''still in repair.'' I asked if they had found the problem yet, and they said, ''I don't know.'' Other than my inquiries, I've received absolutely no communication from them.

i think you bought you PC from the same place my brother did. exactly the same thing happened to him the copmany he was with had it for nearly 3 months and then sent him a stupid e-mail saying he had but games on it and it caused it to crash. and here's whats stupid. The PC was designed for gaming apparently. so eventually he got trading standards involved and they got him his PC sent back in a week. god knows what they said to them but whatever it was it worked.

If you don't already have it (and you should if you're doing web development to insure cross-browser compatibility) download and install Mozilla Firefox. Then go get the FireFTP extension at http://fireftp.mozdev.org/

wsftp, from ipswitch is pretty good, been using it for years

also if you have a decent web development environment like dreamweaver that has a pretty good FTP sub system built in, which makes site updating a breeze. If you can get an older version of Dreamweaver I'd definatley reccomend it...... it does a lot of the mundane checking (comparing the published site with the local site and offerign to copy files as requested.
Personally I use Filezilla ( http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/ ) which is free and posibly one of the best FTP clients out there.
Get CuteFTP
http://www.smartftp.com/
I like FileZilla (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/filezil...
Of course,

I prefer smartFTP.

It could be downloaded from www.smartftp.com/download.php

It has an intutitve interface and is easy to use.

Wish u all the best for your website...............

Can a external hardrive contain a bad file?

my computer hardware (for a macbook) has crashed a lot (4x), so I got an external hardrive. But the crashing started before I got the hardrive. IS it still possible that there is a faulty file on my hardrive that I got after my computer was repaired? THere is some limewire music on there, but limewire has not been downloaded onto my computer since the second crash. How can I save my files, stop these crashes, but still determine what is causing this problem! (MAc store not helping...clearly)

Can a external hardrive contain a bad file?internet

First getting an external hard disk is not a solution to crashes.Crashes occur due to instability.Like something not properly installed and the like.There is a software called freeze i think which can undo most of the problems.and well the external drive may be infected in case you are using windows.If you are using osx,u nidnt worry about it.Limewire can download a lotta crap apart from music, so be beware.And i cant stress this enough,but backup backup backup,burn all important stuff like you pictures,songs etc to dvds or put it on an external drive .Hope it gets fixed.

Imagine it was your TV or your computer that was on the blink... then you got back home, and it had been fixed. A stranger has been in the house, but nothing has been taken, just the repair has been made.

That was no stranger, that was a bunch of the Kibler Elves who got laid off making cookies when sugar became bad. They were re-trained by government grant and now make surprise repairs all across the country.
