Are you an administrator on this system?

If you press Cntrl-Alt-Delete keys, do you see the choice on the popup window? If not, you could be blocked by group policy.

If you run a search of the C drive, does taskman.exe appear in the right hand pane of the window?

More information is needed to provide a better potential solution.

If you are a local administrator and you are not restricted by group policy then you are most definitely infected with a virus or other malware. Try to load msconfig and remove startup items that you do not recognise. If you cannot load msconfig (likely) then boot into safe mode and do it from there.
If you do not have an effective virus scanner I recommend you scan your system using panda activescan - a free online antivirus scanner. www.pandasoftware.com

Hope this helps :-)
