PROMLEM again lol ! :(

My computer is annoying me yet again for some reason when i log on to windows these errors pop up ....







anybody know how to disable this or get rid of it i have no idea what it is

Thanks Tom

By the way my computer runs Windoze XP home edition

hmmm, have you had a worm removed by your anti spyware/virus software recently?

I did a google for csrss.exe and brief reading indicates it's either a worm, or part of Windows... soooo....

If you think it was a worm that got removed as above, get rid of the registry entry.

If not, investigate further!

I guess the registry entry would make reference to it residing in a system directory if it were the legit component of 'doze.

Like I mentioned in a previous thread, I know very little about XP...

Thanks Rich how do i remove it from the reg??

cheers Tom

Oooh Tom, I got that one aswell....

Its gotta have something to do with that thingy last friday...

I'm just doing a service pack 2 update...

Awww must have its really annoying!

First off... HERE BE MONSTERS! BE VERY CAREFUL!

There's an app called regedit, which you can use to change stuff in the registry directly.

I DID NOT TELL YOU THAT! Do some research into how to use regedit on the web and save a current copy of it before you do anything.

good luck!

Tom, have a look at this link

link
cos apparently there is also a legitimate file that looks like a worm and you shouldn't remove it

See? This is why when something goes awry with my PC I pick up the phone and yell help. Stuff like this scares the bejeezus out of me

Tom1 That fault you got is supposed to there it's part of windows part of the drivers that make you pc work.
Do NOT delete it or you could be making the problem worse than it is below is what is on my system and mine is upto date

csrss.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32
CSRSS.EXE-12B63473.pf C:WINDOWS\prefetch
csrss.exe C:\WINDOWS\Servicepackfiles\i386

Prefetch in XP helps to load your applications faster. Heres what microsoft describes it as:
"Prefetching data is the process whereby data that is expected to be requested is read ahead into the cache. Prefetching boot files and applications decreases the time needed to start Windows XP Professional and start applications."

Uhm.. Marie.. What if I kinda may have erased that file???

I've just posted on my thread about a possible virus..
