Quick question.

How can I get the thread id/process id/whatever for explorer.exe from a C++ program?  I'm using EnumWindows right now but I don't know how to tell when it gets to the right window.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?  Google isn't being very helpful today. D:<

What is your objective?
Your question is rather ambiguous as you don't seem to even understand what you're looking for.

You didn't google too hard did you.
Here's what a very quick google search returns

and afair, the method presented there is correct

shell("tasklist.exe")
