Two questions:
1. Is csrss.exe actually a virus? I've recently had problems with the
W32.Chod.D virus which was replicating this particular file, and
whilst I think I've removed the virus, csrss.exe still appears is the
system32 folder. I read somewhere that this is actually a proper
system file, but I just need some confirmation.
2. The above mentioned virus has disabled Security Center, and I've
been unable to restart it. I am also unable to change the way Security
Center alerts me. How can I fix this?
Any help would be appreciated!
While csrss.exe is a MS file, it certainly sounds as though your
computer is not clean yet. You can go through the virus/malware removal
steps here:

Since I don't know what av you used, it would be smart to first run
either Sysclean or Multi-AV as described at the link above.
