Got a new laptop with Windows 7 64bit in December but for the last 2 weeks I have not been able to run the taskmgr ... I suspected it to be a virus/malware and installed newest version of Norton 360.... This has however not resolved the issue
Has anyone had a simular problem and found a solutions?
Please advice
Thanks
Martin
Welcome, Martin! You made the right decision posting here; we will get it resolved.
You are right; it could be malware. Download Malwarebytes free and do a scan.
Also, have you tried a System Restore? Try restoring to a time before the problem occurred.
Hope this helps,

Hello Martin,
Welcome to seven forums :)
Alternatively, you can try the steps given in the below link:
"Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator" error message
Note: The error message may be different in windows 7. The error message in the above link usually occurs for XP. However, it may fix the issue :)
This is probably something that you know, already, but there are at least 2 was to get to task manager. Alt+Cntrl+Delete. You can also right click on task bar. Did you try both?
