1) In Windows Explorer, record modified date/time of the bogus lsass.exe
2) Rename it by adding zzx_ prefix.
3) Get Internet Explorer to delete all temporary files and downloaded
program files.
4) Reboot.

If the bogus lsass.exe re-appears, continue:
5) Rename it again
6) In Explorer, search C:\ for all files modified on the date you recorded
in (1) above. Sort into time order and rename all files of the same size as
bogus lsass.exe modified within 2 minutes of the time you recorded.
7) Record paths of all other files modified in this time window - they are
suspects.
8) Reboot with no network connection.
9) If the bogus lsass.exe does not appear, the only other thing to guard
against is an intruder program that calls home to download the files you
renamed.
10) Plug into the network, and if you don't have a software firewall which
alerts on outgoing traffic, install one - e.g. free version of Zone Alarm.
11) Make sure the infection has not already re-appeared, and reboot again.
12) Zone alarm should alert you if one of the suspects tries to call home.
Re-name it.
13) If you want to, delete the renamed files.

I don't have this problem. Perhaps a running program cannot be deleted.
If so, then I would boot my BartPE from the CD. BartPE can surely delete
anything.
Or, I would try Knoppix. It ignores XP permissions hence it can delete
anything.
Or, perhaps the repair console can do the job.
Another poster has suggested yet another way.

[Guest]

Thanks Newell,

Also, my task manager was disable even the RUN program doesn't appear (i try
to use the keyboard key short window+R still not running).. how to enable ?

1) In Windows Explorer, record modified date/time of the bogus lsass.exe
2) Rename it by adding zzx_ prefix.
3) Get Internet Explorer to delete all temporary files and downloaded
program files.
4) Reboot.

If the bogus lsass.exe re-appears, continue:
5) Rename it again
6) In Explorer, search C:\ for all files modified on the date you recorded
