There are a couple of ways.
Under 9x, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL, select the application, and choose End Task.
Under NT/2000, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL, choose Task Manager, highlight the application and choose End Task.

This is the manual way of killing the application.
I am talking about an automated way. Like putting it in a bat file and executing that on startup or stuff.

The 2000 Resource Kit and the Support tools on your 2000 CD have tlist.exe and kill.exe
Very handy tools.
