M Matt Coy Aug 18, 2003 #2 Hi Rob, Does the task manager open if you right click on the taskbar and choose Task Manager?
R Rick \Nutcase\ Rogers Aug 18, 2003 #3 Hi Rob, Start/run cmd, from the prompt, run this: copy %windir%\system32\taskmgr.exe %windir%\system32\taskmgr1.exe Close the command prompt, then start/run taskmgr1.exe to open Task Manager. Then try to locate the virus that's on your system and remove it. Both Klez and Yaha can cause this behavior. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers aka "Nutcase" MS-MVP - Win9x Associate Expert - WinXP - Expert Zone
