You need to get Mark Hammond's Pythonwin package (version 129 if you're 
running Python 1.52).

Use the win32pdh package to enumerate the processes on a system and then 
process the returned list. Attached is a function that doesn't quite do what 
you want. It tests to see if a process with a given id (and optionally name) 
is running. It should be easy to modify to get an id for a name.

Cheers,
