    HELP. I have Toshiba Satellite laptop and I have just been on taskmaster ( possesses) and I found some thing running so I thought I would stop them, and now nothing works.it is still lit up. but the mouse no longer works so I cant' get on the off button to turn it off and start again.
    also I cant' get to the restore point to go back a day and correct it. I cant' even turn it off manually. Need immediate help.
    please anybody.

    You mean Task Manager, and Processes, right?

    Huh?  If you hold the power button down for longer than 4 seconds, it won't shutdown?  Try holding the button down for as long as 10-15 seconds and see whether it shuts down.  If not, then pull the battery out and unplug the computer.
