Virus or what ?

[titun]

From today evening i am getting this pop up message by Avast antivirus. I have the latest virus definitions and updates. Thats why avast is able to block it, but I am unable to guess what is it. Is someone trying to hack me over the network ? Or is it a virus ? Someone please explain this to me.

here is a similar problem as yours.

It is basically an "attempt" to take advantage of the vulnerabilities that exist in Win2K
and WinXP in reference to RPC/RPCSS and DCOM (Distributed Communication) that are addressed
by Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-012 - KB828741
*support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;828741 and finally
*www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-012.mspx

Also please read: *www.microsoft.com/security/incident/blast.asp

So Avast is blocking an attempt to take advantage of a possible vulnerability, through TCP
port 135. If you have patched the OS. That's GREAT. If not you should apply the above
referenced patch. In either case Avast blocked the exploit from doing its dirty deed.
