Process functions

[mlloz]

Well, I'm proud with this type of scripting langauge, I'm using it from 2 years ago, and I've bet too many people in semi-impossible happening things..

few days ago I've tried to write a miracle to remove the W32/Rontokbro virus, but two problems faced me, so I need some assistance in them..

1st of all, I want a procedure to forcibly Kill some running processes, not close, and not using Run() function to call other windows tools.

2nd thing, how to know the username of a specific Process?, no matter in using APIs or creating a UDF..

I'm really want these things to complete my script.

Take a look at processclose().

When a process is unloaded, close and kill mean the same thing unless the process has protected itself. msiexec is a protected process and has some weird access limits.

ProcessClose is what you want. A process cannot be asked to close, you are merely misunderstanding the name.

i tried ProcessClose() but its returns an error and nothing happens to the process, also i tried Run() to execute the 'taskkill.exe' but its looks like i'm writing a batch file..

The Kandie Man provided an example of how to pause a process, maybe you can pause it then kill it.

This won't work on windows 2000, I use the above for all other's, and pssuspend.exe from sysinternals for windows 2k.

ok guys and about the username?

WMI can return process info like username of a process. Have a search in Scripts'n'Scraps for Scriptomatic.
