Details

I keep getting a nuiscance pop up add warning that I have infected my system with spyware. When I track it to the parent process, it shows that it is "riding" in on csrss.exe - which I assume is the RSS server. It is very annoying and points me at different websites to "fix" this problem each time.
csrss.exe is not part of Mozilla or Firefox installations.
