How to Kill a Program in Windows

[Spaziboi2]

OK, problem. I have a norton subscription, and the graphic running process, ccSvcHst.exe, is lagging liek a son of a bitch. im talking it normally hogs up 95% of my cpu. Yeah, It's restricted, and i KNOW i dont need it, (yes, i researched the process, its ok to shut down.) so does anyone know how to shut it down? i've tried batchfiling it, but i cant use batch files well, so yeah, ny help would be appreciated.

Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the task manager click the processes tab and find the file "ccSvcHst.exe" and Click End Process

Note: Restricted. wont work.

[Fiddler222]

Open cmd, hit "tasklist", find a process, hit "taskkill /im [process name] /f". Cheers.

Speaking of task managers that don't give you too much info...check out the Win9X task managers. If explorer.exe crashed, you were pretty much screwed. No way to start new processes neither

[KillerKabel]

Mmhhh, on that site there u mentioned...

There's a Top Security Threats collum...

And I got the Isass.exe thingy...

It's pretty big, considering, bout 1000kb...

Is that one I should close/"Kill"?

Can ya just explain wich ones to kill?

The security threats or the top searches?

Nice and easy way to check all of your windows processes. Type in youtube search box "Check processes from your Windows task manager"

[RPGoof]

Ah, I'm glad you mentioned processlibrary [dot] com, it's REALLY useful. I was wondering why ashserv.exe likes hogging my CPU and lagging the rest of my computer for a few minutes... Turns out its from my virus scanner.

[mudbloodslut]

msconfig

[BrainBait786]

[kiwidud3]

i turned off explorer.exe along time ago... do not do that, (well in XP) coz its the windows browsing n task bar and stuff

Chris that web was very usefull

[nubiatech]

Hey Chris, while you have Pixie on your lab, did you ever thought of inviting Triumph the Insult comic dog over?

[48GMo24]

Very Helpful

thank you!

[CajunTechie]

I think everyone should note though that killing processes via the task manager isn't a good thing. It should be a last resort type thing because the task manager does not take the program down cleanly and could corrupt or lose data.

I tried to get rid of the AOL dialer and shut down the computer. What a tricky one!

[Suertsje]
