Default Task Manager Locked Out

I use an administrators account in Windows XP Home Edition. All was well
until recently. Now whenever I try to access the task manager I get the
following "Task Manager has been disabled by Administrator". No changes
have been made that I am aware of and I have been unable to locate any
information regards this on the MS Knowledgebase.

Any advice is appreciated.

Regards
D

Many thanks for that. Btw any ideas how this could have happened to begin
with or is it one of XPs little "bugs"?

A quick search on google found this http://snipurl.com/6w25 - does that fix
the problem?
