How to hide command line arguments in a windows application

[SC]

I'm trying to hide command line arguments passed to a C++/Qt application
compiled for Windows. Under Linux, I replaced argc in the main with empty
spaces and it works, a 'ps -ef' does not show arguments anymore. But with
the same application compiled for Windows, I still can see the arguments
using prcView (for example). Do someone have an idea to do that?

Thanks for your help,

Stéphane

ps -wwef would show still in Linux !! Post to some specific
newsgroups related to windows implementation of the C compiler that you
are using.

Restart your application without arguments, then exit the first instance.
Implemenatation left to the reader, as it's best done using Qt (==OT)
