Task manager disabled

[Kane Guy]

Hi,

I recently tried to stop a program through the task manager in windows XP
and I get a message that say's that the task manager has been disabled by
the administrator which is me though I did not not do this. I am wondering
how to enable it again, can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

Thankyou very much,
I have the task manager back now and I will run a virus scan to make sure
that I do not have any malware in my hard drive.

Thanks again for your help, Kane Guy.

this also happened to me, i removed all off the virus software i could find
and restored the task manager using the link here. Did anyone find anything
extra that needed removing, i get the occasional trojandownloader message
trying to get me to buy antivirus. Anyone who can add please email me at
(e-mail address removed).

Thanks all!!
