Win32 perl to terminate IE browsers

3 New Member
Hi,

Do you know any simple script to terminate the iexplorer.exe. On window, I have to go to Task Manager -> processes -> End process of "IExplorer.exe" . Currently I have 30 IE browsers running on the PC, and would like to know any simple script to terminate this process.

Thanks,

Hello Perl gurus, 1. I have a web page where I can push a button (dospawn.html). 2. This button calls a CGI script (spawnboss.cgi) 3. spawnboss.cgi calls a forking perl script (forkme.pl) 4. forkme.pl calls the process creation script (createme.pl) 5. createme.pl creates my notepad.exe process, but no window shows up on my PC. The result on my web browser is:

I've tried to use Thread.Join() coupled with a Thread.Abort() but this does not kill the thread. Based on...

Hello all, I am a new Perl programmer. Below is the beginnings of a code that I am using to manipulate an Excel spreadsheet via Perl using win32::OLE. However, what I'd like to do is the following: instead of either opening a file or creating a new one, I'd like to do BOTH. I was thinking of creating a loop where I could basically say something like: if $excelfile exists, then open $excelfile, otherwise, create a new workbook named...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
