Depending what it is you may find that it has Active Directory or Group Policies set to prevent the addition of Software or opening the Task Manager. It may also be the result of a piece of software that you have installed not being able to bring up the Task Manager.

I do know that some Medical Applications do this as well as some Accounting Applications. I'm not sure what others may do it but it is something used by some Software Companies.

The others are assuning you have a server and active directory installed. Do you?

What type of internet connection are you using? Do you have a hardware firewall installed? Are the machines hardwired with cable or wireless?

How are you managing the user access on the computers? Are you using any cyber cafe management software?

Are these just 10 individual machines?

You may just have a configuration problem.

If these are just individual machines you may have a large scale malware infection.

Have you tried installing McAfee BEFORE connecting to the network?

Have you tried to install or run any other malware scanners such as Adaware, Spy Bot or Malware Bytes AntiMalware (MBAM)?

Download HijackThis and run it and then go to the site below to analyze it or post the log file here.

HijackThis log file analysis

Hijack This opens you a possibility to find and fix nasty entries on your computer easier. Therefore it will scan special parts in the registry and on your harddisk and compare them with the default settings. If there is some abnormality detected on your computer HijackThis will save them into a logfile. In order to find out what entries are nasty and what are installed by the user, you need some background information.

A logfile is not so easy to analyze. Even for an advanced computer user. With the help of this automatic analyzer you are able to get some additional support. Just paste your complete logfile into the textbox at the bottom of this page. Due to a few misunderstandings, I just want to make it clear that this site provides only an online analysis, and not HijackThis the program.
