I believe win.getprocessid takes a handle, not a caption list, e.g.,
win.getprocessid(win.handle("caption-list"))

How to process a selection? Messagebox returns a result. For a YesNo
messagebox, if 6 is returned, Yes was selected. So you can have logical
processing based on the response to the messagebox.
How to kill the process? You can try window.close("=Opera"). If that doesn't
totally work, add win.terminateprocess(pid).
To restart Opera, you would add do("path/to/Opera/opera.exe").

I would suggest to do the whole thing in one script. That script could have
functions to launchevent, makeevent, destroyevent, testlimit and
querywmiprocess. You should test it before adding it to autorun by launching
launchevent yourself for awhile. Launchevent could have arguments for input
handle, memory limit, and interval for testing. While testing it, the input
handle could be win.handle("=Opera"). e.g.
.myscr...@launchevent(win.handle("=Opera"), 50000, 120)
When you eventually run it from the Autorun command list, the command entry
could be:
.myscr...@launchevent(win.handle("autorun"), 50000, 120)
