Re: A way to get rid of KaZAa & Morpheus

To everyone who doesn't understand why this was made, here's the purpose:

A while ago my sister kept installing Kazaa & Morpheus on the main computer (aka: the only one with a connection to the internet). I didn't want the RIAA or whoever to bust in our house and take away the computer, so I wrote this little program. What it does is searches for Kazaa and Morpheus, along with some known programs (that I am aware of) that they install also. It checks all the running processes for Kazaa and Morpheus, and if they are found, it just exits them out.

As to what Joe Ross said, he is also correct. I didn't aim for that purpose, but now that I think about it, it could work.

@Andy: I am aware of Ad-aware I use it all the time, and it is a great program. This isn't intended to uninstall any programs, just to get people who use it annoyed.

Also, I do realize that if anyone thinks about it, they could just Ctrl+Alt+Del and end the process, but I was aiming for a quick and dirty helper, just to inform everyone.

@Matt: Thanks for backing me up on this program.
