[Dev-C++] How to find and kill child windows..

[Danny R. <dro...@ho...>]

Hi,

I want to make a simple popup/down killer for the internet explorer, yes =
i know that there a lot of programs on this mather
but i just want to write my own.. what do i have to know?

I actualy need to know the function's.. do i have to find a process =
first and then dig into its structure to get a handle
to the parant screen before i can kill the child screens?

I haven't tried, so this might be an embarrasing suggestion but...

Can't you just call GetDesktopWindow() and then iterate through all it's
child windows. If you don't like a window, you might post a WM_QUIT or
WM_CLOSE to it.

You might call GetWindowText() - Normally, IE adds it's own text at the
end of the title.

You might also peek at the window class with GetClassName(), i.e. if the
window class name is 'IEFrame'.
