   @moranr - Yeah I actually like this idea a lot. How about this... we present the processor configuration dialog, with its "Apply" button disabled, as soon as they hit the "Stop & Configure" button on the processor details dialog, thereby allowing the user to begin to view/change properties while the threads continue to closeout normally with a subtle feedback mechanism on the configuration dialog that displays the active thread count to the user as the processor is polled (i.e. "Stopping..3 active threads remain"). From there we can simply present a "Terminate" button to the bottom of the dialog, should the user want to elect to do so. Once the process reaches a zero thread count,  we can simply "enable" the Apply button and remove the "Terminate" button and the form would function as originally intended. Let me know if this design seems like a more natural flow to you guys and my thanks again for all your help with this!
