anyone have csrss.exe running in task manager?

and how much ram does it take up. I'm getting really paranoid after opening an exe that closed itself immediately from this thread (not saying it's a virus):

I'm not saying this was a virus, so please don't burn this guy at the stake , but I am concerned since the exe in that file and the task in task manager have similar names

I actually scanned it first with avast, and it is a process that normally runs in windows from what I understand, but I googled and apparently that same file can be overwritten with several worms, and it's difficult to tell if your scanner doesn't find it

please if you have a moment, check your task manager and see if you're running this task and how much ram it takes up and post that along with your windows version

thanks !

csrss.exe SYSTEM 3.516 K (more or less)

check the path carefully. Should be C:\Windows\System32.

Anything else is a trojan.

1548 k xp

about 6,056 K

Vista 32bit

I did a google search and found a page that said to try right clicking it and ending the task in the task manager - if windows says it's an essential part of windows, it's not a trojan.

thanks everyone for the quick response, I'm pretty sure I'm safe
