Are you certain that your keyboard is functioning properly? Test using Del, Ctrl
and ALT keys with other combinations. I'd wonder, also, about any add-on
utilities that provide added "keystroke shortcuts" management. Any new
programming is also suspect.

Otherwise, look for TASKMAN.EXE. If you find it, run it. What happens? Won't
look the same as when you hit C-A-D, but that's the app that's called. Need to
test it.

Might replace TASKMAN.EXE on GP.

Might also want to scan for viruses, adware, spyware, etc. Malware can do the
*strangest* things.
