Disabling Task Manager

[iknowyou]

  Private Sub DisableTaskManager(ByVal cmd As Integer)
        Dim systemRegistry As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey = Microsoft.Win32.Registry.CurrentUser.CreateSubKey("Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System")
        systemRegistry.SetValue("DisableTaskMgr", cmd)
        systemRegistry.Close()
    End Sub

Code above is working on windows XP, but using this code in some windows 7 OS, returns an error.
Is there a way of force edit this in windows 7?

Prefereably this has got to be done via admin/guest roles in windows 7. Its a lot more secure than xp (which was a can of worms).
However a registry fix will also do it.

I guess you could get vb.net to change the registry settings or do manually - Sorry I dont know the code.
