IDEA: kill specified programs "harshly/silently" at shutdown

Why couldn't this be an added feature to Process Tamer?

that is quite a good idea really.
since i really want to keep PT tiny and free of extra features people don't need, it poses a bit of a problem.
however, i think maybe the solution is: plugins for Process Tamer.
i have stuff i'm working on for the next couple of months but when i finish i may consider this.

Hi Folks,

Just a quick note, without all the techie aspects.
When I wanted a real "forced reboot" program I found that a lot of them got snagged.

Karenware's freeware has been close to 100% reliable in truly forcing a shutdown.
(There are a number of other options as well.)

I highly recommend this for the no-nonsense reboot.  I put a shortcut
easy to get to on my start menu, about the only program that I stick
there. (Other stuff else is in categories.)

Shalom,
Steven
