| I have the thread ID | is it possible to have a script which ask the TID | and then kill it No. That's why I asked what you want to accomplish. If you want to use TerminateThread you have to do it from compiled software. (And you also need to have permission or "access" on an NTFS system. (Vista/7 is always NTFS. XP is sometimes NTFS.) I don't know about who has access aside from the process that created the thread.) The way I like to think of it is as a cook and a waiter in a diner. Compiled software is the cook. Script is the waiter. The waiter can do a few things himself, like pour drinks and maybe make salads. But most of what the waiter does is to send orders to the cook. You can only order what the cook makes. Likewise with script. It's interpreted. You can only call the functions that the host provides. If you want something other than that you have to go into the kitchen. That means loading and unloading libraries, using specific data types, having direct access to data in memory, etc. Those are all things that script can't do. You can look up TerminateThread and find the docs online at MSDN. It's a fairly simple function. And you can call it from compiled software if you have the required access. You just can't call it from script. |
