Virus help?

They identified the culprit as a file called "csrsss.exe" (note three s) that sits in the Winnt/system32 folder and runs a process with the same name.
It's a nasty thing that probably sits somewhere in the network and is resurrected every time it's deleted from the folder and the registry.
Anyone familiar with it and able to suggest a remedy? Sophos doesn't recognize it (yet).

Date: 27/4/04 07:30 pm (UTC)This thing seems to be very new and no virus checker or adware/spyware checker was able to find it. We searched all over in various forums and websites. A google search came up with three hits, all from people posting about problems with it.
