When I look at my antivirus software I see the scanner runs as a windows service under the system account, it also has the CanStop set to false. The UI is a regular windows app, and it doesn't matter if this is closed/reopened because it is just a user front-end to the underlying security services. Whether it has additional locks I don't know, but you could try and see how that works.

If your AV by any chance is a windows form then one option is to just hide you app from the applications listing in task manager by setting the forms ShowInTaskbar property to False.
 
No.. My App Like a Windows Service, and Its Only Visible in Task Managers Processes Tab Only.

By the way do you know a way to make my program in visible in the Processes Tab in the Task Manager as a System Process ???
Because when we try to end process a System Process We Get Only a Blocking Massage From Windows

Not without searching the web, I don't.

Are you by this confirming your service runs as 'system' user and has CanStop set to False, and that this still allows you to kill it?

I can answer this myself now, as admin it does still allow the associated process to be ended thus stopping the service. A quick search on the web didn't add more to it either, the reason is probably the malware factor.
