FindWindow() issue

Use CreateProcess instead of spawn. Then use hProcess and GetExitCodeProcess api to detect if the process is still running. Check the exit code against STILL_ACTIVE to find out if the process is still running. Another way to check if the process is still running is to call:

 
BOOL bRunning = ( WaitForSingleObject( hProcess, 0 ) == WAIT_TIMEOUT );

CreateProcess has more startup features and returns the process id, the thread and process handles, and much more. CreateProcess also works for ANSI and UNICODE.
