Task Manager disabled by Administrator

[Peter Sharp]

I purchased compuer in November 2003 with Windows XP
already installed on the compuer. Being new to computing
I am still very much a beginner. Therefore I am wading
through tutorials. I wish to access Task Manager but am
faced with a screen which states"Task Manager disabled by
your Administator" when I try to access Task Manager by
clicking the task bar a menue comes up but Task Manager
is only faintly visible which means that it willnot
work.I am the Administrator. How do I solve this problem,
how do I enable Task Manager. Any helpwould be greatly
appreciated by this novice. Regards
