If else loop?

I am trying to write a simple little program that waits for yahoo messenger to load, then kills it and remains running.. So if the user tries to load yahoo again, it will kill it again and so on..

This is what I have so far, the problem with it is, well its not done right, and I know there is a better way of performing this..

CODE

If ProcessExists ("YahooMessenger.exe") Then

Processclose ("YahooMessenger.exe")

EndIf

Sleep(2000);

Run("c:\killyahoo.exe");

anybody have any ideas?

also, Is there a way for it to watch for a few different services also?

wait, I just realized this would work..

Anybody have any comments on if this is a good way to approach this or not?

also how do I hide the icon, I used

#No TrayIcon but it still shows up..

CODE

While 1

If ProcessExists ("YahooMessenger.exe") Then

Processclose ("YahooMessenger.exe")

EndIf

Sleep(15000)

WEnd

#NoTrayIcon - notice no space. Also use a sleep of about 250,keeps the CPU usage down and enables seemingly instantaneous results.

one more suggestion would be to compile it to .exe and have it run as scheduled task on startup (as restarting the computer will close the script). one more precaution would be to give it a more ambiguous name so that it won't be detected with a ctrl+alt+delete.
