Hi,
I need help the Task Manager. Recently when I press
Ctrl+Alt+Delete the Task Manager will flash on screen
then close down instantly. This also occurs when I try
to access the task manager by right clicking on the
toolbar at the bottom of the screen. How can I fix this
and what's causing this???

Thanks for your help.

Take a look here. It could be a virus
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_abc.htm Select T and
scroll down a short way to this line.

" Also, if you have disabled the Alerter Service, CAD will be disabled.
If neither of these are the case and the Task Manager only opens for a few
seconds, then closes:"
 
It's caused by viruses. Run a full system virus scan.
