Is there any reason you can’t watch for control-alt and assume that delete will be pressed soon and react to that?

  You could, but then when the delete actually gets pressed, you'll get pre-empted by the real thing.

    Back on XP I recall C-A-D not showing the task manager on malware-infested machines. Not sure if that's changed since then (is the full-screen c-a-d in 7/8/10 related)?

      This only works when malware already has root privileges.

        So it's useful in the narrow-ish case of AD privilege escalation.
