If I am using windows 7, will using ctrl+alt+del quit a program (as it use to with windows 98)?

Is that the only way to quit a program that is unresponsive?

Is there a "Force Quit" option somewhere?

Ctrl+shift+exit will bring up the task manager
Then you can end task.(for all windows versions)
Hope this helps

Thanks, a lot of the windows shortcuts are similar to the Apple ones, but yesterday while using Windows 7 on my Mac, I had opened a design, and it was too large for the hoop. Anything I tried to do would practically take forever, so I wanted to quit the program.

The Mac comes with an easy way to Quit or Force Quit the application. I was afraid to try the Alt+Crtl+Del that I used to use with the old Windows. I didn't know if it would shut the whole system down or not.

Thanks for the list, I will go and check it out. :)
