The Taskkill.exe program stops responding when you try to end a process in an installation of Windows Vista that is running in audit mode
Consider the following scenario. When you run Windows Vista in audit mode, you try to end a
process by using the Taskkill.exe program. However, the Taskkill.exe program
stops responding. If you try to end the unresponsive Taskkill.exe process by
using another instance of Taskkill.exe, the second instance also stops
responding.
This problem occurs because a deadlock prevents the
Windows Management Instrumentation (Wmiprvse.exe)
process from starting. The Taskkill.exe program relies on Wmiprvse.exe to collect information
about the process to be ended.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
