Reason my comp has been slow for a year now
« on: August 28, 2006, 01:57:47 PM »
csrss.exe is a normal windows file , but the trojan version is marked with a green U and a red D and this is what i find on my firewall list when csrss.exe keeps asking for net access

    Start>Search>For Files or Folders>.... Search for csrss.exe

    Does it appear anywhere other than c:\windows\system32 ?

      Is your Windows Explorer set to show hidden folders & files?
      What are the locations of the other 4 versions?

      Try this & let us know...

            Panda didn't infect you, someone else will explain it to you, I'm off to work.

              the online virus scans that we use on this site are not going to infect your computer all they do is detect infections.


              have a read here:

              http://www.computerhope.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?num=1134123580


              what kind of antivirus do you have??


              dl
              spybot
              adaware
              ccleaner
              windows defender
              zone alarm if you dont already have a firewall
              ewido

              if you already have these programs but they dont work uninstall them and reinstall them.

              then follow theses instructions:

              turn off system restore
               

              NOTE: New users might find going through the following steps to be useful:
               
              1. Turn off System Restore if applicable. (Windows ME & XP users)  
              2. Run Ccleaner  
              3. Run Ad-Aware  
              4. Run Spybot  
              5. Run Microsoft Antispyware  
              6. Run AVG Free  
              7. Run Ewido  
              8. Re-start in Safe Mode  
              9. Re-run AVG Free  
              10. Re-start in Normal Mode  
              11. Turn on System Restore if applicable. (Windows ME & XP users)

              restart in safe mode(rapidly tapping f8 when windows is starting up)

              delete anything that is found.

              in ccleaner click the issues tab on the left and do a scan for issues then click fix selected issues back up ur register when it asks you to save it on your desktop.

              make sure all of the programs are updated
