Win2K Local DoS?

[Kevin Stephenson <kevin.stephenson () POBOX COM>]

I ran services.exe from the run box, and it took my load up to 100%.
Checking the task list, there were 2 services.exe and Win2K would not allow
me to kill either process. The one I spawned was running at 99% of load. I
then started up another 10 services.exe processes. Eventually, the load
spread to about 33% over 3 of the processes. I don't see a way to kill
these processes without a reboot. Have a nice day.
