Needing to click through to open the task manager makes it so hard to close unresponsive programs especially when Vista slows downs as well. Thanks for the tip.

That is lame & not a solution, I don't like or want to press Ctrl+Shift+Esc (too many keys on one hand), I want to press Ctrl+Alt+Del & get Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt with left hand, Del with right)...it would be fine if they were flipped tho...

Ctrl+Shift+Esc = "That Screen" (What Vista does now for Ctrl+Alt+Del)
Ctrl+Alt+Del = Task Freaking Manager

Heck even if Ctrl+Alt+Ins were Task Manager it would be better, Ctrl+Alt+Ins is alot closer to Del, to be able "to get used to" (conform much?)...to be clear, either of these (or a option somewhere to, um, CHOOSE) would be good/fine...

Ctrl+Alt+Del = Task Manager
Ctrl+Alt+Ins = "That Screen"

...OR...

Ctrl+Alt+Del = "That Screen"
Ctrl+Alt+Ins = Task Manager

I may see if AutoHotkey can help me here, if I succeed, I will post a link to a script here, to put the CHOICE back into the USERS hands!

That is a virus, try to make a system restore since last time you open task manager without problem, if you don't remember, try more time to be sure it will fix it, remember, if you install something after the day you choose to restore your computer, will be uninstales from the registry, so means that them doesn't will run!!!! but you will still have it on the computer, you don't will lose any documents, 100% sure.

I think this is much better, because you only need one hand to do this.

Just keep practicing it and very soon you gonna love it.

Also in most keyboards or laptops the Del key is always in a different location.

But these keys are mostly in fixed location, however the ctrl key could be the exception.

You go and download the “PROCESS EXPLORER” is a task manager, and works with vista home
