I have a windows2000 machine that has a virus in the rpcmon.exe file in the system32 root. I cannot find reference to this executable in the w2k disk. Has anyone heard of this file and can it be deleted without affecting the os.?

It's not part of Windows 2000. It may be a piece of one of your other applications. Instead of deleting, try renaming it and see if any of your applications break.

You can also try searching for files that contain the text 'rpcmon', or search theregistry and see if it shows up.
