Hum, I *did* search for "rpc error" before I posted; no results were returned.

I did not know RPC was a separate service; I'll check if it is being started as soon as I get back to that computer.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'll post as soon as I have details.

Chriz.

Chriz, RPC is Remote Procedure Call.
There are various configurations mentioned at http://www.blkviper.com/WinXP/servicecfg.htm to shutting down and disabling many of Microsoft's services which you may do not need. But
these actions - disabling Windows Services - is quite an advanced task. Avast! requires at least RPC service running... You can cause more conflits doing so. Be smart! Good luck. If you need more help, tell us.

Try to desinstall, boot and install avast again.
If this not work, please see Administrative Tools / Services
and look what is marked to RPC Service. It must be Start Automatically.
Both avast Services must be setted to start automacatilly either...

Btw, RPC is indeed an independent service of NT/XP systems. Just search the word 'RPC' in forums, you´ll get some:
This forum includes ZoneAlarm and RPC discussion
This forum includes a picture of RPC Window
This is specific of RPC error

In fact, avast must logon as LOCAL SYSTEM and must be allowed to interact with the desktop  ;)

Do you use any other antivirus in your computer?
Did you use in the past?
Do you have a firewall or other security program installed?

Please, search the board for avworkInitialize and see if you get any solution for your problem...
A reinstallation should done but I've tried and nothing...
