Disabling The Task Manager

To disable the Task Manager in Windows 2000, click on the Start button and select Run. Type in 'regedit' and press OK. Now look for this String:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\

In the right pane, right-click on an empty space and select 'New->DWord Value' then name it 'DisableTaskMgr' and press Enter. Now, right-click on the new value and select 'Modify'. In the 'Value Data' box, change the 0 to a 1 and press OK. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect. To re-enable the Task Manager, change the 'Value Data' back to 0.
