Thanks rich and bruce
My memory and my cpu runs pretty low usually so it must have been the serif software I downloaded hogging resources for a moment.
All I knew was the csrss is exploitable or helpful process a trojan or both so thanks for the imput.
( @ tw I usually find a task or process list online that explains each function but the list I found today had conflicting information. )
