Hi,

All of us already know that when we try to stop lsass.exe using windows task
manager it tells us that the task manager is unable to terminate it because
it is a critical system process; this is a very good policy, windows is
doing great job protecting "it's own procesess". there's also some other
programs that protect their own processes from being stopped like Kaspersky
AntVirus and Norton AntiVirus...but how about ours?! can we protect our own
processes or programs (YPager.exe, WINWORD, DAP.exe.....) from being
terminated using Task Manager?

Thanx

I don't think that's possible. What's your goal? If someone stops
winword.exe, they can just reopen Word again. Same with Yahoo Messenger.
 
Hello Lanwench,
well, it doesn't matter what's my goal as long as you "think" it's
impossible!!!
thank you anyway

Well, I've been wrong before. Just wondering what the goal was because
perhaps there's a better way.
