get procexp.exe or pskill.exe from sysinternals.com. You can kill the process using either tool. Before doing this, are you sure the persons session isn't still out there as disconnected? If you logging off their session should fix the problem. Regards, Paul DeHaan CCNA, CCA... Network Administrator J.M.

We have Win2K SP4, MF XPe FR3 and we are seeing processes left behind after users logoff, like an iexplore.exe running under a users context taking up 50% of the boxes CPU (dual proc system). We cannot kill (kill -f, process explorer, at /interactive) all fail with access denied - our only solution is to reboot the box. Any suggestions would be apprecitiated.
