program closer

[canine]

i have created a program that lets the user enter the partial name of a window to close it (mainly for closing microsoft internet explorer) but when i try to close microsoft internet explorer by sending a WM_DESTROY message to it only gets rid of the contents of microsoft internet explorer and leaves the rest of the window unresponsive. my program uses EnumWindows and tests to see if the name of the window includes microsoft internet explorer and if so sends a WM_DESTROY message.any ideas?

There was an link on hooking that I think zen posted a while ago.....the guy that wrote it set his examples to avoid any explorer window as he said trying to interfere with them was problematic..... I cant remember exact details........

Try posting some code...
