📎 AI Summary:
The thread centers on whether an HP “Quick Play” update download triggers a “MS RPCSS ATTACK (UDP)” entry in Windows security history, and what that means—especially given worries about serious remote attack risk. Subsequent replies focus on clarifying that this may be a detection/logging artifact (or related to RPCSS network activity) rather than verified malware, and recommend rechecking with proper scanning/verification steps rather than stopping at the first alert. Overall sentiment is cautious but largely reassuring, with users advising practical troubleshooting instead of panic.

I was trying to download an update for my "Quick Play"- HP recommended. The moment I pressed the download button, this attack appeared in my security history file. I ran security in safe mode, at about 300,000, computer became hot, and I stopped the scan to let it cool. Nothing showed. MS RPCSS ATTACK (UDP) Very serious remote computer attack, I know Windows 2000 is affected, the server, XP not Vista...?
