Re: Process Destroying (C++)

You maybe (and probably are) thinking, "Gee genius, why not just remove it from your compter???" The reason being is because someone else who uses this computer keeps installing it again (I've uninstalled it so many times). If someone can think of why Kazaa won't be destroyed, please tell me.

(PS: Before this becomes a possible flame war, I asked Brandon ahead of time to make sure that asking this would be cool, and he said Ok)
I wrote an application once that required the killing of other processes. Be aware that there are several levels of killing proceses and child proceses. Try a higher one.

They range from the humble: "excuse me sir, would you please close when you find time if it does not inconvenience you in any way"

To: "you will be terminated now! resistance is futile. die @#$%^ die!"

There is an api call for each. With some research i'm sure you canfind them.
