I can't think of much else other than to be absolutely sure you are logged on as an
administrator by viewing the membership of the local administrators group and then
checking that system and administrators have full control for administrators and
system to the system folders and subfolders. If this is new behavior be sure to run a
full virus scan on your computer. It might be interesting to see what happens if you
copy tasklist from a computer it works on into a folder not in the path on the
problem computer to see if it executes from there. --- Steve
