The 60 secs will give u enuf time to type: shutdown /a in the RUN box to stop the reboot.

Alternatively, boot in safe mode - this should prevent the virus from running.

Delete any files in C:\Windows\System32\Wins
(svhost or hostsdll)

GoodLuck

Follow this carfully, in run type services.msc, go to services, look for remote procedure, double click it, go to recovery, it will probably say restart computer, change it to restart service, then click ok, now that should stop computer from wanting to restart, now you can go online and look for blaster removal software, try norton or mcafee, then run this on computer, hopfully then you will get message, virus has been removed, now go back into remote procedure change back to default setting,(restart computer) hope this helps.
