I'm running a PyWin program that executes another program using subprocess.Popen(). Unfortunately, this other program isn't well behaved, and frequently terminates without terminating its process. After this happens enough times, all my memory is tied up, and the machine crashes.
Using subprocess.poll(), I can keep my program from hanging, by timing out the process, and starting anew. This still leaves the previous process hogging memory. How do I kill the old process in Windows? Earl -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
