I have a Dell Latitude D800 with 1GB of ram. when ever I start my machine and
load the task manager, switch to the processes I noticed that the csrss.exe
memory usage is >= 150MB and virtual is about 550MB. I compared to some of my
colleague computers and they have ~3mb of usage and ~5 mb of virtual memory
usage.

I searched the internet for this and did all kind of suggestions to check if
it is a virus or "bad" program and didn't come with any results.
I do have AntiSpyware and Norton antiVirus protection which I keep up to
date.
