VBS script not retrieving process correct CPU memory time - Win 2000

This script gets the time when the process is created first (early in the morning,as these process are reset manually every day at 5.50 am), but i need to get the CPU time in the task bar (see picture please). It seems these are different times:

Option Explicit
Dim procDateCreate, strComputer, strProcessKill,objWMIService,colProcess,objProcess,TimeToKill,mustKill

strComputer = "."
strProcessKill = "'dllhost.EXE'"

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colProcess = objWMIService.ExecQuery ("Select * from Win32_Process Where Name = " & strProcessKill )

For Each objProcess in colProcess    
      
      TimeToKill = DateAdd("n",4,WMIDateStringToDate(objProcess.CreationDate))
      
      WScript.Echo "proc Name: " & objProcess.name
      WScript.Echo "proc CreationDate: " & objProcess.CreationDate
      WScript.Echo "proc CreationDate (Human): " & WMIDateStringToDate(objProcess.CreationDate)
      WScript.Echo "proc CreationDate + 2minutes: "& TimeToKill

    If DateDiff("s",TimeToKill,WMIDateStringToDate(objProcess.CreationDate))<0 Then
       mustKill = 1	
        End If  

      WScript.Echo "hay que matar:"
      WScript.Echo mustKill
      WScript.Echo "proc KernelModeTime (Milliseconds): "& objProcess.KernelModeTime
      WScript.Echo "proc UserModeTime (Milliseconds): "& objProcess.UserModeTime
Next

Function WMIDateStringToDate(dtmStart)
    WMIDateStringToDate = CDate(Mid(dtmStart, 5, 2) & "/" & _
        Mid(dtmStart, 7, 2) & "/" & Left(dtmStart, 4) _
            & " " & Mid (dtmStart, 9, 2) & ":" & _
                Mid(dtmStart, 11, 2) & ":" & Mid(dtmStart, _
                    13, 2))
End Function

In not sure about the CPU time, but you can get the PercentProcessorTime easily (just change XXXX to the pid of your process):

for each Process in GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}//localhost").ExecQuery("Select PercentProcessorTime,IDProcess from Win32_PerfFormattedData_PerfProc_Process where IDProcess=XXXX")
    WScript.Echo(Process.PercentProcessorTime)
    WScript.quit  
next

Os its that the time we can see in the task manager?

Yes, this should show exactly the same value in VBS and in Task Manager.
