My windows task manager has been disabled on my windows Xp home edition.I
think this is due to some trojan sent to me by my friend.
I have tried enabling it through regedit.exe but it failed. Can anyone
suggest me a permanent solution to enable my task manager.
 
Also note that Malware turns on these restrictions.
You may wish to check on this:-

Ad-Aware http://www.lavasoftusa.com
SpyBot S&D http://www.safer-networking.org
CWShredder http://www.intermute.com/spysubtract/cwshredder_download.html

Make sure you update Ad-Aware and SpyBot before running the scan.

Also recommended is a full virus scan (which has been updated)

Perhaps an online security/virus check
