Use the F-Secure online scanner and see what it comes up with - then download and run Ad-aware, Windows Defender, Spybot S&D, SpywareBlaster from HERE - if you still have problems post a hijackThis log and we'll see whats there :thumb:
 
Try this ...

Click Start, Run and type this command exactly as given below: (better - Copy and paste)

REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f


CRAP ... watch out ... there is NO space in Policies ... and I do not know why this silly VB keeps doing it

Mucks edit ... Ian, why is it I can never get 'code' to past properly. :(
 
i used another method of another forum also where i typed in tskmanager or something similar in run that was disabled too

Hmmm, don't like the sound of that ... TM should be able to run ... did you check on-line to make sure it isn't a nastie of same sort?

:confused:
 
yeah ive used all the programs andy webb reccomended i can right click on the bar at the bottom of the screen and click task manager but it dosent pop up and i cant use msconfig or regit in run still

i am using norton would installing fsucure and scanning make a difference
 
weird i reset my p.c i opened task manager up once fine then tried to again and it was unshaded again when i right clicked on the task bar

Never mind Nortons & McCaffee, none of 'em are much cop, try Antivir.

It's free. Download, install, update, run scan.
