System Level Task Manager

Don’t ya just hate it when a service stalls and trying to kill it in Task Manager only displays ‘Access Denied’?

Try this:

at [\computer name] {time in future} /interactive taskmgr
eg. at \comptuer01 10:15 /interactive taskmgr

It will create a Task Manager with system level access which will allow you to kill pretty much any process. *evil grin*

Another option is to use the kill tool from the Windows 2000 Resource Kit.

kill -f {pid}

Bloody handy.
