What is the virus/malware status of the computer? Not being able to run
the Task Manager is symptomatic of virus infection. If you do not have
a current version antivirus (not earlier than 2004) installed with an
active subscription and updated definitions, scan with either Sysclean
or Dave Lipman's Multi-AV. The links for Sysclean and Multi-AV are
here:

After you scan with one of those first-line antivirus tools, get a
full-feature av, install it, update it, and do a thorough scan in Safe
Mode. Then do scanning for non-viral malware as described in the
Elephant Boy link above.
