Is there a regedit setting that allows task manager to end tasks without having the annoying confirmation box pop up. |

Maybe, maybe not. If you're killing the same task each time then you could create a shortcut on your desktop to invoke taskkill.exe. It won't require any confirmation. |

Sorry, I now realise that you're running Win2000.exe. No taskkill.exe there! Put these words into a Google search Window in order to fine one of the countless "kill.exe" equivalents:
download "kill.exe" |

thanks Pegasus, but looking for a quick fix vs. another program to run.

It's a Windows 2000 Resource Kit utility. It may be in Support\Tools folder on the Windows 2000 CD-ROM, if not download it here:
