Remote shutdown the box until you can get physical access to it.  Remote 
shutdown everything else too - from least secure systems to the most 
secure to minimize packet sniffing.  The first thing your modern 
"hacker" will do to a Windows box is install a rootkit and then install 
a sophisticated backdoor application into the rootkit protected 
directory.  At that point, your entire internal network is their playground.
