This progran is a frontend for the windows "taskkill". If i type the output directly into a command window, it works, but it will only kill taskmgr.exe from this app.
Any thoughts appreciated.

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>

using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
string computer,domain_user,password,imagename,command,force;
int time;
cout << "What process would you like to kill? ";
cin >> imagename;
cout << "On what computer?(c for current) ";
cin >> computer;
cout << "Enter Domain\\User(c for current) ";
cin >> domain_user;
            if (domain_user == "c")
     {
        domain_user == "c";
     }
   else
     {
        cout << "Password?";
        cin >> password;
     } 
cout << "Force? Y/N";
cin >>force;

command= "taskkill";

Never use system() on Win32
Use Win32 api (TP and others)

What on earth "TP and others" means?
