And get current definitions and do a thorough virus scan of your
system. This could be a legitimate message, but if it happened out of
nowhere it's probably a virus infection. I don't remember the
details, but this was a very common virus a year or so ago.

Thanks for the link. I tried all of the methods, but the second I delete the
item "DisableTaskMgr" it comes back again.
I know I have a malware that I am trying to fix and disable - but I need the
disabled Task Manager to get at it.
Thanks.

I should also add that i tried clicking on the "DisableTaskMgr" and changing
the value to "0", but in a split second it is set back to 1.
Thanks.
