I just looked up kill in O'Reilly "Perl for System Administration" and it recommended using either the NT Resource Kit (pulist.exe, tlist.exe, kill.exe /f) <http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/downloads/recommended/ntkit/defau lt.asp> or Win32::IProc. Only thing is, I can't seem to find a copy of Win32::IProc anywhere... If anyone happens to have it on their system or know where we could find it, please let us in on the secret!
