I can't get the process manager to come up. Sometimes when it comes up it oes away immediatly. Whats wrong with it and what can I do to fix it.

You have a virus, put simply :p Apparently one trick is to copy/paste the taskmgr.exe program from the Windows folder to another place on the drive, rename it to something random.exe, and it'll then run, and you can kill the offending virus application. Then go do a virus scan on your system :p

I ran virus scans like 4754790390349080374 times and it found nothing.

Did you try copying the .exe elsewhere and running it from there instead?

And update your virus definitions to the latest.
