PUM.Hijack.TaskManager

[naj]

hi. i scanned my system around 3 days ago and successfully removed this. once again, i scanned my system to find that it's come back. although it's not very threatening, it seems to keep reappearing onto my system, but i couldn't find the source of it.

this hijack disables my task manager, i found a tool which enable's my task manager again but then disable's agai after i use task manager once. does anyone know where the source of this could be and how i would be able to remove it?
