    Automatically close the non-responding Program

    With a small registry tweak, Windows XP can be set to automatically close any
    program that 'stops responding' (crashes), eliminating the need for you to use the
    task manager to close down the offending software manually.

    Steps:
    Open REGEDIT and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\ Desktop
    Modify the REG_SZ entry AutoEndTasks with a value of 1

    Note:
    Without having much knowledge in Registry Editor Dont try. Before editing registry
    take a back up.
    Back Up Registry:
    Start --> Run
    Regedit
    File --> Export
    And export the registry to the safe place.
