spyplayer,

are you trying to put password protection on the program??
try using API -- > Findwindow("class", vbNullString) but you'll
need a Handle Spy

X = Findwindow("class", vbNullString)
if X = 0 Then Call Sendmessage(X, WM_Close, 0, 0)

yeah, and you would have to put it in a timer

errr,

meant to put
if X > 0 Then Call Sendmessage(X, WM_Close, 0, 0)

You can use FindWindow to check the title bar as well. Call X = FindWindow(vbNullString, "<titlebar caption>").

Also, check that X <> 0, because since a Long is signed (both positive and negative values), the Window handle MIGHT wrap around, and become negative.
