My taskmangr.exe file is missing! Have you seen it?

[Jennie]

Hi!

I hope I am posting this in the correct group! Some time
ago, Norton Anti-Virus found on my computer the file
taskmangr.exe was infected with a virus, and it
automatically deleted the file. So now whenever I turn
on my computer, I get an error message stating that this
file is missing. Am I able to re-install this particular
file? ( FYI: I have no Windows disks; none came with my
computer) I am, however, still able to access the Task
Manager by hitting ctrl+alt+del and choosing Task Manager
from within the Windows Security Box that pops up.

Thanks for any help!
Jennie

Hi Jennie, it appears that the reference is in the registry - it was a virus
file.

Go to the above site, it will show you how to edit the registry and remove the
entries.

Update you NAV and then do another virus scan when finished.
