Task Manager

Somewhere between one and three weeks ago, CTRL-ALT-DEL no longer activated
the Task Mgr. Instead, I get the message, "Task Manager has been disabled by
System Administrator." I am the only user on this stand-alone desktop and I
certainly did not disable this. I am as sufficiently firewalled,
anti-virused, and anti-spywared as anyone, so I don't really suspect that
kind of foul play, but hey- what do I know. That's why I'm 'here.'

Can anyone help me re-enable the Task Manager??


THANKS!

Hi Skip,

This error can also be caused by a virus. Do a virus scan with up to
date virus software.
