Then I suspect that you do not have the appropriate permissions to kill those java processes.

      Can you kill the process manually using the Task Manager?

      Have you tried?:

      Also, you should be checking that the Open() has succeeded: 

      Win32::Process::Open($obj,$pid,1) or die "Failed to open $pid: $^E";

      I was ignoring this possibility as I thought that you would be getting an "$obj uninitialised" error had the called failed, but unfortunately, the author chose to return 0 instead of undef.
