Well, I usually use *sysinternals* Process Exporer, and have yet to see
it fail to list a process...  how do you know the process exists, if you
can't list it?
 
Real simple.  I have randomly named processes (like gk5odre.exe) popping
up, and when I kill them, another one takes their place.  *Something*
has to be the parent than controls this.  I can delete an entire
registry key and watch it be recreated in less than a second.  I can
delete a directory with three dlls in it and watch it be recreated right
before my eyes.  I can kill the randomly named process and watch it
reappear using the same name or a completely different name.  I can
delete the executable after killing the process, and it will be
recreated in no time.  So *something* has to be controlling it, yet when
I look at the process tree, the randomly named process appears to be the
parent.
