      There is a registry hack to enable or disable Windows NT TaskManager. The same registry hack applies to Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
      Hive: HKEY_CURRENT_USER
      Key: Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
      Name: DisableTaskMgr
      Type: REG_DWORD
      Value: 1=Enablethis key, that is DISABLE TaskManager
      Value: 0=Disablethis key, that is Don't Disable, Enable TaskManager

      As part of the enhanced management available in Windows 2000 and Windows XP, rather than risking a registry change, as an administrator you can enable or disable Windows 2000 Pro or Windows XP Pro's TaskManager using Group Policy Editor. This can be applied to the local policy. Note: if you are trying to override your organizations group policy, you can't. As soon as you re-authenticate to the domain, the domain or OU Group Policy will rewrite the registry setting. But if the TaskManager was accidently disabled or you need to control this item for a set of standalone boxes this is for you:

      Click Start
      Click Run
      Enter gpedit.msc in the Open box and click OK
      In the Group Policy settings window
      Select User Configuration
      Select Administrative Templates
      Select System
      Select Ctrl+Alt+Delete options
      Select Remove Task Manager
      Double-click the Remove Task Manager option
      And as I mentioned above, since the policy is Remove Task Manager, by disabling the policy, you are enabling the Task Manager.
      Got XP Home /Professional to open registry use the "regedit"

      =============AND IF IT DIDN'T WORK ==============

      you are infected by chineese Worm
      You definetly to install Windows XP again

      you can check that your "Folder Option" option also gone and if it is there so try activating "Show all files" it will not work

      Run a scan with your anti-virus, you may have a trojan stopping it from being viewed.

      You can use the Remove Restrictions Tool, which can be downloaded from http://en.sergiwa.com/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=2&lid=1

      Personally, I prefer the Sysinternals Process Explorer over the task manager. It can't be disabled, and is more advanced. You can get it from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx

      TO ENABLE TASK MANAGER IN WINDOWS xp SERVICE PACK 2
      THESE ARE FOLLOWING STEPS:
      1} START –> RUN –> TYPE "gpedit.msc"{without quotes}
      2} then go to, USER CONFIGURATION –> ADMINISTRATIVE TEMPLATES –> SYSTEM –> CTRL+ALT+DEL OPTIONS.
      3} IN THAT ThERE IS A OPTION CALLED AS "Remove Task Manager", double click on it, there are 3 options
      Not Configured
      Enabled
      Disabled
      SELECT "Not Configured".
      NOW THE TASK MANGER WILL AGAIN BE ENABLED ON YOUR PC.

      HOPE THIS HAS SOLVED YOUR PROBLEM.

      Throughly scan your computer with an updated antivirus and antispyware.
