Is there a system call that would destroy a process? Sometimes I end up with zombie processes, other times I end up with a process attaching to a device driver, and hanging, so I want to be able to completely destroy the process...image, file handle, driver hooks, everything. If there isn't one, and noone wants to do it, I'll gladly do it (may take a few weeks tho). I just don't wanna do what someone else has already done.
