My windows XP got virus infected. I have removed it. But I can't access Task Manager. When I press Alt+Ctrl+Delete it says, "Task Manager is disabled by administrator"
How can I enable Task Manager?

Are you the administrator?

Open your registry with regedit, navigate to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
In the right pane if you have a valuename
DisableTaskMgr with a value of 1 [one], either modify the value to 0 [zero], or merely lclick DisableTaskMgr and delete it.
Close the registry window.

Close the registry window.
