I have a custom shell running under Win Logon. I noticed if I open the
Control Panel, it files up explorer and puts a task bar on the desktop. My
question is, How do I close explorer if I don't have the taskmgr on my
image?

Richard,

IIRC, Control Panel is one of the namespaces used by Explorer.

If loading Explorer is not an issue for you, you can always "kill" the app with a tool like "pkill.exe" or "kill.exe" from NT
Recourse Kit.
And to mention that you can always close an app from your custom shell (properly - WM_CLOSE message, etc., or "improperly" -
TerminateProcess API). There is a bunch of MSDN articles on the topic.
