Or you can use this code

$UserName = “Username”
$PCName = “PCName.domain”
$ProcessName = "iexplore.exe"
(Get-WmiObject win32_process -ComputerName $PCName| where{$_.getowner().user -eq $UserName -and $_.ProcessName -eq $ProcessName}).Terminate()

you can use the wmi class win32_process

stop-process (gwmi win32_process | ?{$_.getOwner().user -eq "username" -and $_.name -match "iexplore"} | select -expand processid) -WhatIf #remove -whatif to effectively stop the process
