ActivityManager manager =  (ActivityManager) this.getSystemService(ACTIVITY_SERVICE);
    List<RunningAppProcessInfo> activityes = ((ActivityManager) manager).getRunningAppProcesses();

    for (int i = 0; i < activityes.size(); i++){

        Log.e("APP: "+i, activityes.get(0).processName);

        if (!activityes.get(i).processName.contains("com.qihoo360")){
            //android.os.Process.killProcess(activityes.get(1).pid);
            Log.i("dfd","xx");
            manager.killBackgroundProcesses("com.qihoo360.mobilesafe");
