Rpc ERror

WHat is going on with this error.

What were you doing when the error occured?
What was the exact error?

Have you had another anti-virus installed?

  • if so, what was it and how did you get rid of it?

Switched my computer on this morning and also had ths RPC error… does the wired world have the answer one wonders? :-\

??? Any answers for this yet?

The same questions need to be answered that I asked in the post above yours.

Turned the computer on and noticed the sign on the Avast icon… nothing else!

Error states: the AAVM detected an RPC error. I am unable to open Avast

Have you had another anti-virus installed? - if so, what was it and how did you get rid of it?

I just did a system restore and the error has ceased ( for now?)

RPC error is generally related to other antivirus present or, at least, firewall blocking. RPC error may also be because of avast! services being stopped. Anyway, RPC error is most likely correct by repairing avast! installation

Also, take a look into Administrative Tools > Services
and see how the four avast services are set to start (automatically or manual).
