The term Trojan horse instantly reminds us of the classical reference of the battle of Troy, but in present context it’s more relevant for malicious computer program. Trojan is basically a program that is hidden in the pretext of being a harmless and attractive software download. When downloaded and executed the Trojan programs can harm a computer system in many ways. A computer that is infected by a Trojan virus can be used by another person, mostly hackers and crackers, for sending emails, uploading and downloading files and data copying or destructions.
Trojan horse is spread intentionally by the hackers mainly for using the infected computer for erasing or overwriting data on the computer hard drive, corrupting files, encrypting files of the computer, for uploading and downloading bulk files, logging keystrokes of the user for stealing vital information like passwords of bank accounts and credit card numbers. There are more reasons behind the circulations of Trojan horse virus and they are predominantly wrong business tricks. Trojans can collect email addresses from a computer for spamming. Trojan attacks can also install spyware into the system that keeps track of the user’s net behavior a reports data like browsing habits to other people for targeted online marketing.
Trojan horse is also used by the black hat hackers or the crackers for criminal activities. They use Trojan to attack a computer and then phish for bank or other account details that are used for criminal activities like unauthorized fund transfers. Another serious threat posed by the Trojan horses is the execution of the RAT or remote administration tool that lets other user to control the activities of the infected computer. This enables the remote user to use the system for criminal activities, for sending spasm for spreading virus and so on.
As the Trojan horse viruses are hidden in the software downloads you can not really predict the presence of Trojan. Therefore Trojan attacks are so common these days. In most cases the Trojan first disables the anti virus software of the system and hence it is impossible to protect your system from the malicious activities of the Trojan unless you format the hard disc and do a clean installation. But then with so much vital information on the disc it is not always possible to format the system now and then. In this scenario Trojan horse removal software is the best effective solution you have got.

ye i got that too, anyone know what i should do next!
I searched up ‘csrss.exe’ and got 3:
x86_Microsoft-windows- in a backup folder;
csrss.exe in a main folder. Its a application;
And csrss.exe.mui as an MUI file.
Help, I downloaded it and it says:
“Your requested operation requires elevation”
What am I supposed to do??
Csrss can also be malware . I had one in my profile directory. the one you may think of is in the system32 directory.
THANK YOU!!!
God fucking damnit, turn your annotations on! I pointed out that if 1 csrss.exe running in Task Manager wasnt a problem because its the Client/Server Runtime Subsystem! But there IS another csrss.exe process that exists outside of system32, normally found in the /Config folder which disables Windows Explorer and sends keystrokes on Port 8080!
Csrss.exe is not a malware!
Jesus christ… it is part of the Windows System!
Terminating or do anything stupid to it causes Blue Screen of Death.
If you still want to terminate it, show all process for all users in task manager and then terminate it there.
Csrss.exe means Client/Server Runtime Subsystem! It doesn’t even do anything stupid to your PC without an anti-virus/spyware program!
hey bud, yeah i had the same problem youve just gotta right click on it and run as administrator
Moto didn't get what ur asking! he suggested anti virus which is different then anti spyware! and ur problem is with trojans and only antispywares can remoev it 100%.

http://www.filehippo.com/download_spybot_search_destroy/
try these they work 4 me
run http://housecall.antivirus.com, I run it once a week to keep things cleaned up.
I use "spybot search and destroy" and "adware 6.0". you can go to downloads.com and get them for free and ive never had problems with my computer. AVG is a virus program that is free also that works great. I told my parents and grandparents about these and they tried them and they havn't had any problems since. all three have frequent updates (AVG more than the others). spybot and adware you have to manualy search for updates in the program themselfs but its really easy to use. i had other anti virus programs before and they saied my computer was clean, then i ran AVG and it found 70 virus that the others didn't get.
Here you have some good and free programs to download:
http://askcomputerexpert.ws43.com/download/
If you have Comcast internet, they offer McAfee for free.
AVG is a free virus scan also
No single anti-spyware application is perfect so I recommend using at least 2 different programs. Spybot Search & Destroy is one of the best. I also recommend SUPERAntiSpyware. Other free anti-spyware programs would be Adaware, AVG Anti-spyware (formally Ewido), A-squared, Spyware Terminator and SpywareBlaster.
I strongly recommend using FireFox, it's a far better and safer alternative to Internet Explorer. If you add-on McAfee SiteAdvisor, it will warn you of potentially harmful sites. I also recommend CCleaner which is a free system optimization and privacy tool.
In addition to a firewall you must have full time (active) virus protection and full time (active) spyware protection.
All the following programs are free.
———————————————
Full Time (Active) Virus Protection
If you do not have active virus protection, install only one. All are excellent.
