Weird Task Manager Problem...

[maz4sue]

Hello...

When I press CTRL-ALT-DEL to bring up the Task Manager, it does not appear properly, (see the attached pic!) the tabs are missing therefore I can't see what's running.

This has been like this for the last week or so, I suspected it was a virus so I reinstalled NAV 2004. It got rid of eight viruses (all trojans) but this is stll happening!

I also use Ad-Aware and more recently, Spybot Search & Destroy. Neither of them fixed this annoying little problem!

I'm pretty sure it is a virus of some sort because things don't seem to be running as smooth as they should.

One more thing: If I log on as someone else, their task managers are fine! So it's definitely something stupid loading up at my startup.

I installed SP2 the other day to see if it would fix it, but still no luck. I've had WinXP installed since Oct 2001 so perhaps it's about time I formatted?

Anyway, any help would be really appreciated,

Thank You!

lol, don't feel that way. i had that problem for the longest time, and randomly later on i double clicked on the border and fixed it. i guess what i'm trying to say is, it's not uncommon.
