I Have an console application that in want to hide from the users in the proceses and applications tabs within the task manager. This is to stop the user from closing it using the task manager.

I could do a windows service but I have heard that they do not run under Windows98

The TaskVisible property is not available within VB.Net but the helps say that you can create a console application that is invisible to the task manager.

But when I build and run, or deploy my application it creates a console window to run the application in. This allows the application to be closed because you can close the console window using task manager.

Any ideas would help

Cheers
