Yeah, I don't have problems checking to make sure services are running...
I need to check to see if a process that's running has stopped
responding.

Windows can do it - occasionally, you'll see a window popping up, saying
that an application has stopped responding, do you want to kill it.  So,
if Windows can do it, is that functionality available to WMI or
something?

_That's_ what I need to do.  Thanks!

Benny
