If you want it to sit "forever" in the systemtray just killing ieexplorer then this should work:

While 1
   If ProcessExists("iexplore.exe") then ProcessClose("iexplore.exe")
Wend

Wend

if you add

ProcessWait ( "process" [, timeout] )

to that in the loop it will cut cpu usage. I wouldn't even use the timeout
