You could loop through them all looking for a match...
VB Code:
  1. Dim oProcess As Process
  2. For Each oProcess In System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses()
  3.     If oProcess.ProcessName.ToString = "YourDesiredExe" Then
  4.         MessageBox.Show("YourDesiredExe is running!")
  5.     End If
  6. Next
Or just populate an array of processes of just the ones of the desired name...
VB Code:
  1. 'Gets first item
  2. Dim oProcess As Process() = Process.GetProcessesByName("msnmsgr")
  3. MessageBox.Show(oProcess.GetUpperBound(0).ToString)
