Restore Task Manager & Registry Editor

[Guest]

The application timing for Task Manager and the Registry Editor has somehow
been changed. These programs will only run for a second that then
automatically shut down. I have run various anti-virus programs and can show
no residual infection. I have run the repai feature of Windows XP to no
avail. How do I restore these two programs to their original state.

Timing has nothing to so with it. You have a virus.

[[When you open System Configuration Utility [MSCONFIG], Registry Editor or
Task Manager, they flash for a second and quit. This symptom is caused by
Viruses.]]

Task Manager, MSCONFIG, or REGEDIT disappear while opening

Update your antivirus software and run a full system scan.

Also try running a Free online virus scan.
