    Is there a way I can get a list of processes running on the clients computer? Or can I do it with any other web based language? Thanks

    Not with any web based languages that interact with the client side unless you were to use active X controls or similar. Even if you could do this, why would you really want to?

    Due to security, there's no way to do this. The easiest way would be to have them take a screen capture of the activity monitor (through Ctrl+Alt+Del).
    Maaybe there's a way to do it with activex, etc., but that's really getting into sensitive data so you'd need permission from the user anyway I think.
    At that point, you might consider some sort of remote assistance program where you actually control their computer remotely.
