CTRL Alt Delete Not showing Task Manager

When I Control Alt Delete (XP SP1) the Task Manager window shows breifly then goes away.  The performance monitor icon shows in the tray but when I hover the mouse over it, it goes away.  Any ideas how I can fix it?

BA910,

That is a symptom of a virus on the system. Do a full system scan using your antivirus program with updated signatures and see what it turns up. (You may see the same performance, a brief appearance then nothing, when you try to open regedit and/or msconfig.)

Thanks for your reply.  I did try regedit earlier and the same thing happened.  I'll try a scan with my updated NAV and see what I get.  I did run it recently but nothing...
