Have you tried a System Restore? Have you run virus/spyware scans? Have you tried to start up in Safemode to see if taskmanager will run there? Did you instal/uninstal anything new since it last worked?

I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another so please feel free to ingore this.
