Wesley, just to say, Task Manager was working in safe mode alright.

Hiya Wesly,
I have done the scanning again in safe mode all appears ok and yet
there is still the problem, any other suggestions?
:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
]
"DisableTaskMgr"=dword:00000000
If DisableTaskMgr is set to 1 you get this error message:
Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator
You probably still have some sort of malware.
UPDATE your antivirus software and run a full system scan.
UPDATE whatever anti-spyware applications that you have and run a full
system scan with each one.
You might want to start in Safe Mode to run your antivirus and
anti-spyware software.
Running a full system antivirus scan or anti-spyware scan in Safe Mode
can be a good idea. Some viruses and other malware like to conceal
themselves in areas Windows protects while using them. Safe mode will
prevent those applications access and therefore unprotect the viruses
or other malware allowing for easier removal.

I would be grateful for any advice on this porblem. When I try to run
Task Manager it no longer works. However, if I run it from the
Start>Run>taskmgr I get an error message saying "another program is
using this file". I have started it in safe mode, run the Stinger
software and cleaned up the system, using Adaware and Spybot. I have
check the reg key and this is the setting.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
]
"DisableTaskMgr"=dword:00000000
Could anyone tell me how to solve this problem, I have a lot of the
problem in the forum about this, but I am at a loss now.
