Didn't work in XP SP3. If you are going to bother posting advice, say which OS it works on please.

We can also for example save the shortcut in:
C:\documents and settings\your user name\start menu\programs (Windows XP)
C:\users\your user name\start menu\programs (Vista and 7),

Then Right click at the shortcut and click Properties. Now the in the Shortcut Key box, type for example k (Which represents the word "kill") and then click OK. If you typed on your keyboard ctrl+shift+k (without the + sign) the program will open. It can also be used for internet browsers. (I don't know if this works on all systems but it worked on mine)

Is there any chance to clear computers cached memory on the fly too, and maybe pin it to context menus??

Kill all does exactly that.. kills allincluding my desktop icons, taskbar and all functionality. I need to log out through ctrl-Alt-Delete? (windows 7 32 bit), any suggestions?

I found a solution how to get this shortcut to context menu too!!

1.)

Open regedit and go here: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\Shell\]

2.)

Now generate a new key called "Kill Soft" ( you can add any name you want, it doesn't matter )

3.)

Now generate another key called "command"

4.)

Now look that new "command" key you just generated and double click it it copy this "C:\Windows\System32\taskkill.exe /F /FI

5.)

You can change that icon too by adding a new expandaple key under "Kill Soft" called "Icon" and double clicking it and typing your icon location

6.)

Now your killing soft will appear in context menu too!

7.)

Enjoy!!

Thanks for the shortcut. I've been looking for a program that can do this.

By the way, check out the Google homepage. You can now change the background of the page.
