csrss.exe, System Restore not working, A-Squared Anti-Malware acting oddly

I'm not quite sure what, if anything is going on here, but I'm having some problems and when I was surfing last night A-Squared threw up so many warnings every time I tried to connect to a page that I ended up shutting it down. Today, I ran a scan and it came back all clear, as did Kaspersky AV. I am still leary though.

The problems started benignly enough but seemed to multiply.

-My printer won't print from any web browser. The message comes up, it looks as though it will print, then it sits in the queue. It had just printed something moments before from the net but now it won't. Pages from Word, Notepad and running a Printer Test Page print fine, but from the browsers will not. (EDIT- IE will now print. FF will still not.) I've checked the connections, reset them, unplugged and waited then plugged back in; nothing's worked. In trying to deal with that, other things came up.

-System Restore will not work. It goes through the entire process, seems as though it is working, then when the computer comes back on, and the restore message pops up, it says "System Restore was unsuccessful. Unspecified error." I have used it before and it has always worked well.

-While monitoring an install, ZSoft Uninstaller, became stuck on the taskbar. It was minimized to the taskbar and would not maximize. Right clicking didn't give me a context menu and nothing I did could make anything happen with the program. I brought up the task manager to try to end the task from there
and it wouldn't end. I then noticed csrss.exe near the top. I'd not noticed that program before and it gave no description so I googled it and learned that it could be a serious virus. Some reports said it was normal but more said it was a virus and a very high-threat one at that.

Bump, please.
New issue: an icon has appeared on my desktop called Update.exe
The only thing different I have done today was plug in a USB backup drive but it didn't have enough power to install the driver so I am not sure that is where it came from. I have also removed a couple of programs. Should I run the DDS and gmer again?
