Hide Program From Task Manager on Windows XP

hi, Frotz
you can hide a program from the task manager on XP only if its a service proccess, but then your program can be seen in the list on administration tools - services

This code from HACKm can hide application from application tab in task manager in windows 2k/XP but application is listed under processes tab in task manager. I am not sure is there any possibility to remove application process form there . I would like to know that too :)

look at this link and see if any of that is useful to you.

there are a couple of options, either hide it by pretending it's a different process, or write a service app.

Hello

Yes I know how to hide the program from the Applications tab, I would like to hide it from the processes tab.
maybe using Windows Hook :s
or maybe changing the UserName to System will be cool on processes tab

As far as I can tell it's not possible to remove the app from the process list, hence I suggested hiding it as svchost. the only other way is to write a service app. I have been looking into this quite a lot recently for me and others on here and cannot find a way to remove it. if you find  a way let me know.

why do you need to remove the process from the list unless writing a virus? if you just want to stop a program being closed I have added the answer to

if you want to remove the app from the process list then I can't help you. please let me know either way :o)
