Potentially addresses #577.

This PR does not use WMI as originally suggested and instead reuses Process32First/Process32Next to find child PIDs.

I've not tested whether this addresses UAC, however I did test shortcuts to batch files with start "" "path\to\program" commands to simulate intermediate processes, these programs were correctly terminated with the changes in this PR.
