    Is anyone familiar with passing messages via csrss/DTC?


    Yep, not even sure if thats the proper terminology. First time exposed to it.

    I have 3 pc's ive begun setting up with an application which affords this as one of its features. Ive allowed Distributed Tracking Coordinator through the firewall on my private network for all 3 pc's, however only 1 can actually send messages to the other 2.

    On the 2 problem-pc's I can see the csrss.exe window flicker in the taskbar and quickly disappear, but nothing is ever sent.

    No idea where to begin figuring this out. Hoping a bored systems administrator can see the potential issue ez-pz and point me in the right direction ;p

    :)

    CSRSS.EXE - Confusion

    Csrss.exe is the Microsoft client server runtime which generates worker threads for client requests. The confusion over csrss.exe comes from Trojans or viruses that use the same executable name (.exe) as that of csrss.

    Many spyware/malware programs use filenames of usual, non-malware programs.

    The legitimate csrss.exe is part of the Microsoft client server software and is a very important part of the system which should not be removed.

    One way to determine if csrss.exe is a legitimate file besides looking at the date modified is to right click on csrss.exe inside Task Manager and attempt to end process. Because csrss is a critical file, Microsoft should inform you with a message that csrss.exe is a critical system process and end it is not possible.

    If you do not receive this message when attempting to end the csrss.exe process, then it may indeed be a virus.
