Task Mgr disabled, ran diagnostics but need help

Hello! This morning I noticed that when I try to access Task Mgr from the tray or doing Ctrl Alt Delete, I get a message stating that it has been disabled by the Administrator. I have tried running regedit and deleting the entry that keeps disabling the Task Mgr but when I restart it goes back to being disabled.

I ran AdAware, Spybot, AVG, and all other steps listed in the Read Me thread and have attached my logs from Panda, HJT, and BitDefender. I'm hoping that someone can help me figure out the problem as Adaware, Spybot, and AVG found nothing. Panda and BitDefender appeared to find problems but I have no clue about the HJT file. Any help you can provide would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks,
bugg

 

Please follow the directions for Smitfraud, SpySheriff, SpyAxe & PSGuard Removal.

Now scan and have HJT Fix the following:

Download
- Pocket Killbox
- ExplorerXP

Now run Pocket Killbox:

Choose Tools -> Delete Temp Files and click the RED X.

Run Killbox.exe. Paste the below filenames into KILL BOX one at a time. Check mark the box that says "Delete on Reboot" and checkmark the box "Unregister DLL" (If available) Click the RED X and it will ask you to confirm the file for deletion…say YES and when the next box opens prompting you to reboot now...click NO...and proceed with the next file. Once you get to the last one click YES and it will reboot. Note many of the file list below may not exist but we need to check for them anyway.

If Killbox does not reboot or you get a Pending Operations type error message just reboot your PC yourself.

Now boot into SAFE MODE

Open ExplorerXP navigate to and DELETE the following: (Some of these may have already been deleted by Pocket Killbox)

Now run CCleaner. If you have Windows XP delete the contents of C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch.

Then, as an added precaution, Go to Start -> Run and type: cleanmgr and then click OK. Make sure the boxes for these are checked:
Temporary Files
Temporary Internet Files
Recycle Bin

And Click OK.

REBOOT to Normal Mode.

Post Smtfiles.txt and a fresh HijackThis log.

 

thank you so much! I'll try that and let you know how it goes.
