Win32::Job is indeed the module to use if you want to be sure you catch all child processes too. It requires Windows 2000 or later. You'll need to show us some sample code and explain how it didn't work for you if you expect additional help with it.
As for Win32::Process, you should be able to use kill(-9, $pid) at least with reasonably newish ActivePerl versions to kill $pid and all its children.

Check out Win32::Process and see if it will do what you need. _____ Yahoo!香港提供�W上安全攻略，教你如何防��黑客! <http://hk.promo.yahoo.com/security/> 了解更多
