| Delf |

| Ninkyo |
 | If it named in the Anti-Spy.Info "s" then it's a virus ,but if it named "smss.exe" that means OK

 | When right click on a file in explorer check ur CPU%. it boosts up to 100%, thats what smss and csrss.exe does
| |
 | It's a normal windows file, but the dang thing seems to get corrupted along with csrss.exe all the dang time. Not sure how to clean up. v.v

 | found it inside my windows directory and system32 the one in windows directory was smaller I have deleted it and everthing seems to work,
| |
 | Obviously this is a windows subsystem file but may be a virus with a combination of other processes that appear in the taskmanager

 | Not a Virus
| Mufti Mahmud |
 | A large number of spyware and trojan programs use a version of this file and the csrss.exe, both created in the %windir% (NOT %windir/system) to contact websites and irc to download programs and give outside access to your computer.

 | Session Manager Subsystem,Application that is used to start, manage, and delete user sessions or client sessions under Terminal Server. is NOT a security risk
| John |
 | I removed it from a client pc and had NO problems rebooting. File was in the sys32 directory too.

 | Die smss.exe ist der Sitzungsmanager. (Session Manager Subsystem) Dieser steht als erstes Subsystem da, und startet die darüberliegenden Subsysteme und Dienste.
| DataFighter |
 | Die Datei an sich ist völlig harmlos. Wird für Netzwerkverbindungen benötigt. Einige Trojaner nutzen Lücken dieses Progs, aber dafür gibts ja AV-Progs.
| EvilGonzo |
 | smss.exe, if located in system32, is LEGITIMATE AND NOT A VIRUS! If located somewhere else, and taking 100% cpu etc, it's a virus that just happens to use the same name, in an attempt to trick you! DUH
| |
 | IT MAY HAVE CAUSED MY SYSTEM TO CONSTANTLY HANG. ESPECIALLY WHEN ONLINE.
| MAURICE |
 | Just read the note about this file above. If it is not in the c:\Windiws\System32 folder, it is a trojan. Go to safe mode, and simply delete it.
| Piet |
 | a file with the same name in "c:\windows\system", it like a virus, but antivirus can't detect it
| |
 | Bei der Datei smss.exe handelt es sich nur um einen harmlosen Sitzungsmanager.
| Gacho |
 | its in my startup i just unchecked it everything runs fine

 | "smss.exe is a process which is a part of the Microsoft Windows Operating System. It is called the Session Manager SubSystem and is responsible for handling sessions on your system. This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated. For More Detailed Process Information Get WinTasks 5 Pro"

 | IT IS A TROJAN VIRUS THAT MICROSOFT IS USING TO GET DETAILS OF EVERYTHING YOU DO. BE VERY CAREFUL GUYS I WOULD RECOMMEND DELETING THIS ASAP. I USED TO WORK FOR MICROSOFT ON THE XP TEAM SO I KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO NORMAL PEOPLE LIKE YOU!! MY ADVICE IS GET A FIREWALL JUST TO SHOW YOU WHAT IS BEING CONTACTED WHEN, YOU WILL BE AMAZED.
