Thanks everyone - once I worked out the windows api as suggested I was
able to write a simple app to stop the process.

Thanks Again
Simon

Be sure they aren't running as a service, then
- Use FindWindow to locate the window class IB_Guard, then send a
WM_CLOSE
to it.
- If not found, try the same with the window class IB_Server, in this
order.
