Thanks for all the ideas!  I think I am going to look into the batch
file route.

Use a batchfile to create a ".lock" file and check for the existence of
that file and if it exists, have the batch file exit.

We have one application that is absolute resource hog.  Unfortunately
the users will open it over and over again, usually bringing the system
to a crawl.  It has been very difficult to train them to only open it
once.  Anyone have any ideas on how we could limit the amount of times
it is opened?
