Hi,

Can anyone help me, i cannot seem to open the Command Prompt or my
Taskmanager. I think i may have a virus, but cannot find it with Mcaffee.

Any suggestions?

Not being able to run cmd, taskmanager, and Regedit are symptomatic of
virus/malware infection. Go through these general malware removal steps
systematically -
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

Include scanning with either Sysclean or Multi_AV, plus Ewido. Do all
prep/finishing work and follow instructions to do all scans in Safe
Mode.

When all else fails, run HijackThis and post your log in one of the
specialty forums listed at the link above (not here, please).

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting
this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a professional
computer repair shop (not your local version of BigStoreUSA).
