On my Benq Joybook laptop Rpcxcmod is the driver for the Benq Liveupdate 
service. I turned off the Launch at windows startup option on Liveupdate to 
stop those annoying firewall messages. I do updating manually.

Don't know what hardware you are running but check out the update services 
that use the net and are able to run automatically, after you stop the 
Rpcxcmod process in Taskmanager. The one that says it is now disconnected 
will be it!

 Hope that helps.
