RE: [Full-Disclosure] Looking for a tool



I once had the same problem.

RUn msconfig and then boot with a minimal set of drivers.
Try safe mode?

Then try the sysinternal tools again.

e.g I could not see a exe in the task manager in normal mode (i.e. could
not kill it) but then in the restricted mode it did appear and then I could easily remove the offending process.


Have you tried the MS spy++ tool from visual studio? That will show all process and all threads. Howver one assumes that sys internals is just using the same API that spy++ uses.

I ran into a situation today where neither Foundstone's Process Explorer
nor Sysinternals' "pslist" would list the master process that was
controlling some processes that I was trying to kill.  Does anyone on
the list know of a better utility that will list *all* running processes
on a Windows box?  (This was WinXP Pro if that matters.)
