Terminate Application in Remote Computer w/o Software in XP.

This is applicable only in LAN(Local Area Network)

We will use the taskkill command in command prompt to terminate the application.

Usage:

Taskkill /s [computer name] /im [process name]

i.e. taskkill /s pc-02 /im firefox.exe

(for more info, type taskkill /? in command prompt)

to view the running processes in the remote computer, user tasklist command.

Usage:

Tasklist /s [computer name]

i.e. tasklist /s pc-01

(for more info, type tasklist /? command prompt)

NOTE: if the network is not a member of a domain and it;s just using workgroup, the 2 commands will work only if the remote pc's use simple sharing is disable.
