Script tasklist fails

Start a cmd.
Type "tasklist /?".
Note the syntax for writing filters such as IMAGENAME.
Write simple line of code to see if the internet browser is running: tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq iexplore.exe"
Get error message: "The search filter cannot be recognized."
Scour the net for why this is happening.
Discover lots of people it works just fine for.
Consult documentation at Microsoft.com.
Read the example: tasklist /fi "USERNAME ne NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM" /fi "STATUS eq running"
Type the exact example.
Get the error message: "Microsoft users can't even check what processes are running from a simple prompt - have a free dildo."

Do I have to get XP Professional for this to work, or something?

1. You should be alpha enough to let your girl go to other men and trust her to not do anything regrettable when she returns. If you have to watch her 24 hours a day, it's probably best just to let her free.
2. Get a hard drive to store your personal data.
3. Divx is non-free. Free software is a matter of user freedom and not a matter of monetary value http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html .
4. Ubuntu has a policy of recommending non-free software. I'd recommend Blag or GNewSense
