Task Manager and REGEDIT not working.

When I try starting either Task Manager or Regedit they pop up real fast then close out. I've searched these forums and found lots of topics on this but none have fixed my problem. I was gone this weekend and let my little brother use my computer for gaming. All he'll tell me is that he went on AIM to talk to people and clicked a link that was in his friend's profile and the site didn't come up. Other than that he didn't say anything else went wrong. Thinking it was just some temporary internet file I deleted all of them with cookies. I then proceeded to run McAfee Virus Scan with updates twice. I then followed up with a check disk. I looked at my HiJack This and can't find anything that really sticks out. Please Help.

Try browsing to this directory and deleting all files in the Temp folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Local Settings\Temp

Where Username is the username used to login to your computer. If there are multiple accounts, check them all.

Often times, viruses, trojans, etc. are installed to this directory and run from there.

regedit pops up realy fast and close and task manager do the same thing in my computer.
I found out (at least in my computer) that was a file named: winnet.exe in c:\windows\winnet.exe Was in run command in registry. I deleted the entry and the file. Now when I press Ctrl+Alt+Delete the windows task manager open regulary and when I type regedit in run command, it open by the way. I put it back just for fun, and the problem came back. because I couldn't open regedit, I downloaded the program AntiSpyware from Microsoft and in advanced tools/System Explorers menu/startup programs, I deleted it from there.When you are there, check for activeX and process running. You can Delete or block those that have no company name, no publisher, no description. You can also restore internet explorer
