The browser.exe processes are task-killable, but pop up shortly afterward.
Chrome is installed on the PC, but it was not in use, and I was instead seeing dozes of "browser.exe" processes running, and also "werfault.exe"s as the errors built up. Yesterday, however, users reported "Chrome Errors" popping up on-screen where it would crash. The tdss-detected trojans remained gone and the dllhost.exe processes never returned, and things seemed OK. Following that, I allowed the onboard A/V and anti-malware (Vipre Business and MalwareBytes) to run manual scans, along with SuperAntiSpyware portable. I ran normal cleanup tools up to and including tdsskiller (which cured two trojans infecting c:\Windows\system32\rpcss.dll - identified as "DcomLaunch" and "RpcSs" services), rkill, JRT, adwcleaner, and combofix. Taking a look, there were dozens of dllhost.exe processes running, taking up memory space largely in the 30MB to 250MB range. Two days ago I was called in because the computer was operating slowly.
