When i press 'ctrl, alt, del ' for the task manager it tells me that " windows task manager has been disabled by your administrator ", what does that mean and how can i put it right ??

Hope someone can help me.

    By googling it looks like quite a few things that make that happen. And the solution often suggested is a registry edit.

    I have FreshUI installed and that lets you make hundreds of tweaks really quickly.

    It's an incredibly useful bit of software to have.

    In FreshUI you just click on the tree at the side:

    Windows System
    / Other / Ctrl-Alt-Del Options

    then double clicking Allow user to run Task Manager

    Though maybe someone else knows an easier wayicon7.gif
