i have a problem with XP Pro. Zonealarm and Task Manager wont open properly. When I try to open them from the notification area, their icon on the task bar appears but the main window will not show. Right clicking and choosing restore/maximise doesn't help either.

Any ideas?

768084 2009-04-24 21:51:00 Can other windows/programs be maximised from the taskbar?

Can you maximise the task manager when logged on under a different user?

Have you scanned for viruses/malware?

Thanks for your help.
