Re: kill process
Okay, first it depends on the process. Some processes are setup to run "automatically" and will restart after you kill them. Some processes are dependant on others, and if you kill a process that is depended on by a running process, that process will start it again, whether it is set to run "auto" or not.
Also, a process that restarts itself is frequently a clear symptom of malware. That plus the P2P filesharing program indicates your primary problem (whatever that may be) may be caused by malware.
Forum Rules prohibit giving any support to P2P filesharing, based on the idea that it is used for "illegal" purposes. Which if wrong, obviously as there are legal ways in which to do P2P, but them are the rules, and they really do mean it. So it would be good to not mention that aspect of your situation again.
Finally, killing process is useful for troubleshooting purposes. I have met others that kill processes as a regular routine, and it has always struck me as an inefficient, half-aXXed way to do things. Why is killing processes so important, when there are so many other, more-effective ways to manage them ?
