@JK: bring up task manager by pressing ctrl+shift+esc, then “File > “New Task (Run…)”; enter “explorer.exe” and press OK.

OK, I found what I was talking about before– something that would kill multiple processes at once:
KILLPROCESS from orangelampsoftware . com
Use it in ‘viscious’ mode (preferences) and control-select as many processes as you want to kill. (Because sometimes viruses or trojans just respawn when only one part of it is killed.)

Long time ago I saw a task manager/task killer type of program that was unique– You could select 2 or more things to kill at the same time.
Does anyone remember the name of that program?

Because sometimes viruses or trojans (or otherwise nefarious) have a setup where killing one thing isn’t enough, because another component will just recreate it, and vice versa.

I have a question about SuperF4: Aren’t there hidden windows? If a window is hidden, how are you going to see it to be able to kill it with SuperF4?

But I found a problem in this program. If I close the last window it also will close (kill) my desktop. There is no easy way to bring back my desktop other than a reboot! Have any idea?

This is nice, but when normal killing of process doesn’t work, use this – http://www.diamondcs.com.au/advancedseries/apt.php

Task killing by hotkey is one of the features built into Hoekey http://www.bcheck.net/apps/ I also use Task Killer http://www.rsdsoft.com/index.php4 (site currently down) and sometimes Taskill http://members.ozemail.com.au/~nulifetv/freezip/freeware/ but these last two are visual, i.e. only Hoekey is “kill this task NOW by hotkey”. OTOH Taskill can accept command-line arguments, which is sometimes useful in a scheduler.

@Carbonize: you can always see these typos somehow. Thanks for pointing it out; I corrected.

@Fred: the pingbacks will be seperated from the comments sometimes, um .. this year… I promise
