??? >:(You can not use Task Manager when a machine is infected with Malwarrior. Scumware is a correct name for it. Malwarrior blocks access to The Control Panel, Task Manager and Administrative Privileges. Avast needs to make a portable or bootable program so as to get rid of malicuous programs like this one. Even in safe mode installing or operating any anti-virus or anti-spyware program is impossible with this nasty piece of work. Please provide an alternate solution.

Thanks,

Paul
