If your blog has a dynamic template, then use the see-all-posts icon for the blog to get into it the blog-options screen for the blog that you want to edit.
When you are in the see-all-posts mode, the the address bar in your browser is like this:
http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=5381944372668369653#allposts/postNum=0
Copy your blogID number - that is, the digits between blogID= and #allposts (it's bold in the example above)
Go go
http://www.blogger.com/html?blogID=NNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
where you have replacd NNN... with your blogID
Using pre-Sept-2011 Blogger, AKA the old UI / version of Blogger :
Go to the Design > Edit HTML tab
Using post-Sept-2011 Blogger, AKA the new UI / version of Blogger :
Go to the Design tab
Click Edit HTML
Click Proceed
Note: the last time I tried this, it automatically opened in the old interface's template editor. As always, make sure you take a backup copy of the template - see instructions below before changing this.
Windows Task Manager is used to view details about processes running on your computer. Since it can be used to terminate programs that are misbehaving or are viruses disguised in the form of harmless programs, most spyware and viruses disable it to prevent themselves from being closed through it. Some administrators also disable Task Manager to prevent users from closing important security programs like antiviruses and anti-malwares.
In such situations, running the Task Manager will give the "Task Manager has been disabled by Administrator" error. However, there are some techniques you can use to re-enable task manager and close those harmful programs manually. This article contains few such simple techniques you can use to regain access to Task Managing privileges.
Registry Editor is an inbuilt Windows tool that is used to modify registry keys which tell Windows how it should work. A simple registry modification can be used to bypass the Task Manager block. To do so, just follow the steps:-
Click on Start. Go to Run. If you use Windows 8, Windows 7 or Windows Vista, go to Search.
Type regedit and press Enter. Registry Editor will start. If Registry Editor is also disabled, you will first need to enable registry editing.
Through the left hand navigation pane, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ Windows\ Current Version\Policies\System. If the System key is not there, you will need to create it.
In the work area, locate "DisableTaskMgr". If this value is not there, you will need to create a new DWORD value called DisableTaskMgr. Double click on it. A window will pop up.
Enter its value data as 0 and press OK.
Close Registry Editor. If Task Manager is still disabled, Restart your computer.

Previously I've explained how to remove the (ugly and confusing) "Subscribe to Posts (atom)" link from your blog, and why RSS / Subscribe to Posts is important to your blog and how to create a Feedburner feed for it.
But an RSS feed is useless unless people subscribe to it. So as well as making the feed, you also need to put something in your blog that lets your readers sign up for it.
A standard option for this is the orange square with "radar" markings on it, which many people call a "chicklet" (since it lets your viewer - the chicken? - have access to the feed you are providing).
Feedburner also has options for:
Using a custom icon from popular web aggregatorsI'm not sure that this is a great idea, because you don't know what feed-reader software your readers actually use, and the whole point of a feed is that you don't dictate how people see your blog.
Using an icon that promotes Feedburner. This cute, but I've never seen anyone use it.
