There is a kill.exe (Task Killing Tool) available for Windows.
Depending on the Windows version, the user will have to install the kill.exe in system32.

o On Windows 2000, install the Windows 2000 Support Tools.
o On Windows XP and 2003 Server, it has been replaced by TaskKill.exe, which is in %windir%\system32.
