I had a quick look but I wasn't able to tell. When you bring up task
manager the check box "Show processes from all users" is grayed out thus
only allowing you to see your running tasks. 

 

I had a look at a XP computer and noticed that if the user does not have
admin rights the box is grayed out. So I think I might have told you
wrong and in fact the users can't see all users tasks because they do
not have admin rights on the Citrix servers.

Which GPO restricted the task manager?

        I have not tried in 2003 but in Win2k I was able to do this
using GPO policies. Users with locked down desktops could view only
their running tasks and can end them.

        Is there a way in terminal server 2003 to prevent a user who
opens task manager from seeing system or other user's processes?

        Alternatively if a user's process becomes hung what is the best
way for that user to kill it?
