Do you want to kill the process or just find out what spawned it?

If you want to find the process and it shows up in the task manager's 'Applications' tab then go to the 'Applications' tab, right click the instance, and hit 'Go to Process'.

If you want to kill it, and it shows up in the task manager's 'Applications' tab then open the task manager, find that program in the 'Applications' tab, right click it and hit 'Go to Process' and rather hit 'End Process' or right click the process and hit 'End Process Tree'

Hope that helps...
