It sounds like you've got the RPC worm virus called ms.blast.exe.
You should download the patch from Mickey soft (Microsoft) using a secured PC.

or, it may be the SASSER worm.
Get Stinger from here:

Run it, then go to
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
Regardless of if it's BLASTER or SASSER, this will fix your problem.
Moving to the Security forum, as that is where we deal with these kinds of issues.
Hayate,
What you have might not necessarilly be a virus; "spyware"-type programs can often cause these kinds of problems, and anti-virus programs won't detect/remove them.
Have a read through the other threads in Security to find info on how to detect these pests and how to remove them if they're in your system.
Oh, and BTW: I see this is your first post here- welcome!
:)
Don't really know if this will help or not or whether the problem has been solved or not but i've had that before. when the dialogue box giving you 1 min to save everything in RUN type shutdown -a and the countdown will stop
