Your computer is infected... Anyway do this:

Click Start, Run and type this command exactly as given below: (better - Copy and paste)
REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD

You should be able to access task manager now...:) And run a full system scan...
