Comment:

When I press control/alt/delete my Task Manager window appears , but it is stuck in the Process window and I can't get it back to the original "front" control window. If I click down at the bottom of the screen , then the entire Task Bar will scramble and freeze up all together , although the Task Manager window is still there. This only seems to happen when I log onto AOL . Do I have some sort of virus or does anyone have any suggestions ?? Thanks !! Ryan

Thanks for the site info John .

Ryan, If you mean that the Task Manager tabs are missing just double click the upper border of the Task Manager and the tabs should reappear. Check out the link below.

The top-level menus and tabs in Task Manager are missing?
