    [VB] is it possible to hide an app in the Task manager

    I have an application that starts another application as one of it 'child threads' the reason I do this is because multithreading in vb is very unstable for my taste. I want be able to hide the child app in the task manager

    In win98 there's an undocumented api that will hide App from the Task Manager. But I was not fortunate enough to find that in other windows' OS.. But I don't think this is the reason since you can safely multithread by creating an ActiveX EXE.
