Subject: DCOM Worm?

   I'm working as a technician and have had 3 people
from the local area call within the last hour about a
problem with having their computer shut down after
giving a one minute warning.  This only happens when
they have an internet connection - if they boot up
with a network cable plugged in, even if they don't
have a browser or any other apps open, it'll shut
down.  It looks like they're all running NT/2k/XP as
well - is this a DCOM worm?
