Well, you see. I tried to press "Ctrl+Alt+Delete" and something popped up and said Task Manager has been disabled by your administator. That's all fine and dandy but I don't know how I did it. Does anyone know how I can undisable my task manager? stubborn.gif

hi i had the same problem here also. My task manager was disabled and i was tried of having to see that pop up. So i searched and found out how to undisable it. Trust me this works:

NOTICE: Always be careful when editing the registry. Sometimes changes to the registry affects Windows in undocumented ways. You should always make a backup of the registry before making changes. You can make a backup using your registry editor.

Windows includes a nifty feature that allows you to disable the task manager such that it can not be used to circumvent certain local security measures. However, many spyware programs utilize this feature to an unscrupulous end - spyware uses the feature to keep you from stopping spyware. A common message that occurs is "Your administrator has disabled the Task Manager" dialogue upon Ctrl + Alt + Del. To fix this problem, go to
Start ->
Run ->
regedt32 and navigate to
HKEY_Current_User ->
Software->
Microsoft->
Windows->
CurrentVersion->
Policies->
System.->
Set the value "DisableTaskMgr" to "1" if you wish to disable the task manager or "0" if you would like to set it to being enabled


i found it at this site : http://www.pcmech.com/newsletter/viewtip.php?tipid=328
i hope this works for you! biggrin.gif
