"Remotely exit VFP applications across the network January 28, 2004
Monitor and remotely terminate running application from across the network. Great for those times you need to force users out of applications they have left running. Also, the administrator can check for dead applications or those that are reporting they are in a critical section of the program, like long updates to reporting."

I made a version of it for our use a few months ago - made it tighter and snazzier - and sent a copy to Greg, but he never commented or updated the download. It really works great and mine has an XP look to it. With his permission I would be happy to send you the one I modified. Or you can just use his version.
