Task manager

[Guest]

Whenever I start Task Manager, the dialog box appears for a second and then dissapears making it
impossible to access it. Any ideas?

This symptom is caused by Viruses. It is advisable to run a full system scan. Be sure you update the anti-virus software definitions.

The same symptom is caused due to Klez, Yaha Viruses. It is advisable to run a full system scan. Be sure you update the anti-virus software definitions.
