If one were to use this command would it mess up other programs? I imagine that certain applications would not like being frozen and screw up....? |

If you made a message box with no exit button can someone still get out of it by ctrl+alt+del or other means? |

Try it and see... They should be able to use Ctrl+Alt+Delete to close your program. |
