Solve : task manager repetedly locked out ???

Answer»

We STILL were not able to remove:
- O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FDEA2C12-A476-A13C-2B4C-A3BD546315C2} - (no file)
That's most likely, because your Spybot TeaTimer is RUNNING.
To temporarily disable it:
Right click Spybot's TeaTimer System Tray Icon > click Exit Spybot-S&D Resident.
o TeaTimer closes.

Open HJT, and put checkmark next to:
- O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FDEA2C12-A476-A13C-2B4C-A3BD546315C2} - (no file)
Click on "Fix checked" button.
Close HJT.

Re-enable TeaTimer:
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy.
Double click TeaTimer.exe to start it.

Restart computer.
Open HJT. You don't have to post any new log. Just let me know, if:
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {FDEA2C12-A476-A13C-2B4C-A3BD546315C2} - (no file)

Cool...

How is your Task Manager doing now?

Download, and install free Comodo firewall: http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/

I'll investigate your Windows firewall further, but I want you to be safe, and Comodo firewall is much better, anyway.As for your Windows firewall...
Go Start>Run, type in:
services.msc
Hit Enter.
Find Windows Firewall entry, and tell me what does it say under Status, and Startup type column.
Don't change anythingunder status it says started

under start up says automatic

and didnt change anything Go Start>Run, type in:
regedit
Hit Enter.
Navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Policies \ Microsoft \
If you have a folder:
WindowsFirewall
right click on it, and click Export. Save it to known location.
Right click again, click Delete.
Close regedit.
Restart Windows. Check if firewall options are still greyed out.

How about your Task Manager?after deleting that register key the windows firewall is no longer greyed out. and it was on when i pulled it up as well. thanks for all of your help with this problem i had. is there anything else i need to do at this point ? Good going

You turned it off? Did you install Comodo?

Is your Task Manager working OK?Task manager is no longer a problem

and thanks again for all of your help. not sure how much it would have cost me and to be with out my computer for a week or so if i would have taken it to a shop to fix.

And thanks for helping me straighten out the fire wall as well

if i COULD buy ya a SIX pack i would You're very welcome, but I'm still not clear about your firewall situation.
Do you have Windows firewall turned off, and Comodo running?sorry if i was not clear before but i have them both on now. windows and comondoNot good. It calls for some conflict.
Turn Windows firewall off.OK will do that . is there anything else i should do ?That should do it.
