I suspect some malware tied it up or my Sunbelt Vipre deep scan may have something to do with its disappearance.

Others with the same problem find a fix?

Try the fix at Kelly's Korner.

Enable the Task Manager - #51 on the right.

Right click on it and save the .reg file to your desktop. Then, double click on the file icon (on your desktop) to merge it into your registry. You may need to reboot your computer for the changes to take affect.

With any fix like this you should create a new restore point and backup the registry first. For backing up the registry I like to use ERUNT.
