Windows does not come with a "kill" utility by default. There is a "kill" utility in the NT resource kit (which useable on OSes above NT). There is also a enhanced PSKill utility from SysInternals (http://www.sysinternals.com) which you can use. The hardest part of killing a process (regardless of the OS) is determining someway to indentify the proces to the "kill" program. The PID (process ID) is usually the most exact way, however it difficult to obtain the PID externally. Some "kill" program (PSKill for example) can also take the process name. I would highly recommend NOT using the OS to kill a process. OS killing of process is a very messy deal (particulary on Windows) which can result in resource leakage, Protection faults and Process Termination Dialog boxes appearing. It is advisable to seek another way to accomplish your goal.
