                                g_bStatus = 0 ;
A case of write it yourself or find some complete jobbie
written by macroshaft that comes with C++ to kill threads
and things.
If I was like the smart asses on this forum I would just say
call TerminateProcess .....

I normally find installing any new app in windows does the trick - usually kills off most of the stuff that used to work and frequently (for reason best known to the boy god himself) completely screws up networking so you have to bin it all and redefine it.

One thing I always found odd about the way some people did things in Unix was poor use of processes. Place I used to work had some very flaky in-house software.
Among the numerous bugs, whenever you used one particular option on the menu it launched a new process.Only discovered that when I ran out of memory and found umpteen processes running.

install Cygwin and you will have unix command "kill" - it may be better than task manager but ultimately Windows is weak at killing processes dead - kill -9 always worked for me in Unix
