Usually to stop a process, you start task manager, select the Processes tab, select the process and click "End Process" however you can also accomplish the same from the command prompt using 2 Resource Kit utilities.
Firstly you need to get a list of all processes on the system and this is accomplished using the tlist.exe utility.
