Not able to shutdown/restart IE 8 using restart manager

I am handling an activeX control which needs to be reinstalled even when it
is being used by IE. I am using Restart Manager to achieve this on windows 7.
What I observed is that IE simply reloads the tab that uses my activeX
control when I call RmShutdown(), so I am not able to re-install the control.
And RmRestart() simply returns without any error. Please help me how I can
re-install the activeX control by temporarily shutting down apps which are
using it and restarting them once the installation is done.

Thanks.

Hi Rob,

Can you please elaborate a little bit on 'Application Mutex'.
