Re: csrss.exe High I/O in combination with Terminal service

Hi!

I'd like to confirm that the hotfix available on
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956438 fixes the issue of
csrss.exe high I/O in combination with Terminal service on
MS Windows Server 2003 SP2.

David, thank you for your post which solved that old issue
(I noticed it 33 months ago :-)
