Hello, I was navigating through a client?s computer and I noticed that when I open the task manager it immediatly closes. The enable/disable feature will turn it on and off, but when it opens it just closes. How do I fix this?

If task manager closes or you goto start - run - and type: regedit ... If that closes also, you have a virus. Time to do some serious cleaning.

Normally that problem of programs that simply close on theeir own is caused by viruses eg W32.Klez. So you need to download virus cleaning tools and if you have Anti-virus software installed make sure its definitions are updated regularly.
