Friend of mine had this. Might not be the same for you... anyway, shut down msblast.exe in processes, delete it from windows\system32\, then install this.
Worth a shot?

Heh... my computer kept restarting for the past couple of days. The blame lies in a faulty RAID controller driver, so I doubt you have a virus. They're usually *much* more malignant than just making you restart.

Yeah, what the heck is that msblast.exe? It's in my startup list and I disabled it after getting NT Authority reboots today. So far no reboots since getting rid of it.

The problem here is something is causing a system critical running process to shut down, try ending a process like system or csrss.exe and the same thing will happen. Not sure how to stop it though.....sorry

It doesn't have anything to do with EVE.

I had the same problem, it started just today (Aug 11). Thanks to one of my mates he clued me in on this in the short time I was able to log into EVE. He sent me an evemail since I had rebooted just as he said "You have a virus...[click]"
This specific cause of RPC reboots is only related to NT based OS's NT, Windows 2000, or XP. If you are getting these symptoms on another Operating system then you may have other issues.
I had noticed that there was a file being loaded called msblast.exe located in the C:\windows\system32 folder since this morning, but thought nothing other than what the hell is that [click* end task]. Though I did not experiance the reboots until I got up from bed and got ready to check my next skill study. I did notice that the reboots only happend when connected to the internet. To make a long story short, My problems were directly related to the DCOM/RPC exploit using a buffer overflow. The MS patch fixed the reboot issue long enough for me to get the patch from mcafee and get my firewall reinstalled and blocking those crap UDP packets causing my crashes.
for you non Norton AV users here is the link regarding the worm that uses the exploit to infect your PC.
W32/Lovsan.worm
Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-026
Also McAfee has a dedicated removal tool for ppl that don't have a Virus software installed, or cannot get it through the updates.
Stinger.exe
In order to make this stop you will have to patch your OS with the appropriate patch listed in the Security bulletin from Microsoft (linked above). Then to prevent against further attacks you need to invest (money and/or time) in a decent firewall and block everything you dont need to surf the net of play your games.
Anyway, good luck in geting your system locked down and hope this helps.

You know what is even funnier? Someone who thinks his post will be sent when his machine re-boots in the middle of typing the word "Reply", even though he never got a chance to click the Post Reply button and send it to the server. Levity will not remedy this issue, though I suppose some people do enjoy the suffering of others.

Considering the seriousness of the security flaw, this could have been MUCH more damaging than it was.

Only 1 month old bug with a patch july 11. Those that haven¦t patched yet deserve to get it.
And for hint, use the windows autoupdate feature, unless you got a pirate version. If you got XP remember to disable the simple file sharing aswell.
And don¦t run all the crappy .exe files you get from friends, kazaa, dcc etc.

this thread has been zezzed!
Aside from the humour, which was most welcome, it's good to see people come together to help each other.
I run a tight ship at home, so hopefully, I won't fall prey to this one, but I know of a few people that have.
Not nice.
