From a Java application:
to spawn a program:
    Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
    Process pr = rt.exec(<process>);

to delete (kill?) a file:
    File f = new File(<filename>);
    f.delete();

From a Java applet:
    you can use same things as above, but there are lot of other issues like
secuity/signing the applet etc.
