Hello,
I know one thing to try. I don't know why it quit working, but here is
one way to get it back.
If you're running Windows XP Pro you have the Group Policy Editor which
is started in Start, Run and typing in gpedit.msc
You have to be logged in as an Adminstrator to use this tool, and you
have to be careful with it as it controls many things and you can really
lock down Windows with it. 8-) Within the available settings in Group
Policy Editor will be a setting to restrict access to Task Manager [what
you get when you do CTRL-ALT-DEL]. Set it to disabled to allow access to
Task Manager.
If you're on Windows XP Home you don't already have Group Policy Editor
but you can get a copy of it here:
http://files.filefront.com/GPEdit+Fileszip/;6235551;/fileinfo.html
To install follow the instructions in the "Read This.txt" file within
the zip file you will be downloading from the link above. There is a
small problem with the folder structure within the .zip file. It has
files which need to be in Windows/system32/ in a folder named GPEdit,
and below that folder is another folder which must be created and
unzipped into Windows/system32. If you just let WinZip or Izarc
re-create the same folder structure in system32/ the files in the first
folder in the .zip file will be in a subfolder of the same name [GPEdit]
under system32/ and you will need to move the files out of that
subfolder into system32/ itself and delete the subfolder GPEdit.
Also, you need to register the dlls that come with the package, and one
of them fails registration, but don't worry GPEdit will still work just
fine.
I hope this solves the problem.
Later, Ray Parrish
