The thing is that .cpl(control panel) files are a part of the operating system. So I would imagine ending explorer.exe would kill it, unaffective, huh?

I suggest changing how you administer the computer(change permissions, etc...).

I don't really think writing little programs to loop and watch for "prohibited processes" is the optimal route to take, instead change the user accounts so that they are not allowed to access certain files/features on that pc.

This seems to be a Windows question, not a VB.NET question. You could search for something like
