AveForceQuit
A small force quit clone
Screenshots

Default Panther style.

Brushed style.
Notes
Just wanted to have a reason to try to make a pulsing button.
Instead of enumerating the running processes, what I tried first, the top level windows are now listed.
Kudos to
Pe7er, Duckie, Magbi9 and ThePowderRanger for the graphics.

@Felix: eeehmmm, force apps to quit?
I am actually working on a taskmanager replacement in AveApps style, mainly to get myself known in the world of the Performance Data Helper API. There are some ugly language differences tho.
For security reasons, CTRL+ALT+DEL cannot be overridden in NT systems. Maybe you can replace %systemroot/%/taskmrg.exe, but I do not recomment that.

My keyboard is the Logitech Elite Keyboard, that keyboard is for Mac and Windows.
So they have the little mac icons and such on the keys. So that app wound be wonderful Juno! that way I could set this app to load on the exact key's that they load on the Mac
this means that I will now do Mac keyboard shourt cuts.

I found an app that can do it. I would host it but my free, unlimited file size hosting place is now limited and doesnt accept any file types other than pictures due to abuse by users (fu.cking bastards).
Here is the site for it:

the pulse is actually too quick... it is slower it probably pulses about once every second I would say so about half as fast.
Thanks for thre great app

Where did this one come from? Your a machine Ave.
This is as always very nice but I must point out that the colours of the button are slightly out at the high contrast point (i.e. less range in the pulse). The pulse is pretty much spot on
