The log is clean.
I can see csrss.exe running, not cssrss.exe
csrss.exe is legit Windows file.but when i run my task mananger is has cssrss.exs & winlogon.exe running.When i try 2 stop then i just doubles up so two are running then

BUT i take your word for it everything is ok this site as alway sorted out my other viruses

THANK YOU SO MUCH

JENZO
winlogon.exe is also legit Windows file, unless it's not located in C:\Windows\System32.
Search your computer for it, and see where it's located.
Can you post a screenshot, showing Task Manager with cssrss.exe running? There is only one "s" DIFFERENCE between legit, and bad file.
