Stop users from being able to Kill Processes

Hi,

My users are locked down pretty tight with Group Policies. I have left
them access to the Task Manager simply because often a program will
lock up and they need to use Task Manager to End Task on the program.

However, I have a program that runs in the
HKLM-Software-Microsoft-Windows-CurrentVersion-Run Key and it controls
the users internet access. They have been able to bypass it by killing
the process. As it is listed as running under their account they have
access to killing it.

The only group policy available locks out Task Manager completely and
I would rather not do that.

1> Is there a way to "hide" certain programs from appearing in Task
Manager.

2> Is there a way to hide the Processes Tab.

or

3> Is there a way to prevent regular users from being able to kill
processes like the program?

Thanks

Lara
