You are referring to the Task Manager. Right click on the taskbar, then
select it from the context menu. The keyboard shortcut to Task Manager is
now Ctrl-Shift-Esc, but it can still be opened up by hitting Ctrl-Alt-Del,
you will find it among the listed alternatives.

Thanks for your very prompt replies folks - much appreciated. Callum

It is the same as XP, I use it all the time when Outlook freezes up.

Not exactly. Take a look at the above posts.

If you have not already done so, perhaps you should consider taking your
Outlook problems to one of the Outlook newsgroups. They may be able to help
you with the crashes over there.

The equivalent to XP's Ctrl-Alt-Del is Ctrl-Alt-Del.

The better choice is to run msconfig. Press Winkey+R and type msconfig.
