taskkill /FI "WINDOWTITLE eq Google*"

This one will kill all the processes (e.g.: IE, Chrome, etc..) with title starts with "Google".

If you run start iexplore.exe www.google.com a new IE window will open Google and the title will be "Google".

You can also be more specific to kill only Internet Explorer processes:

taskkill /IM iexplore.exe /FI "WINDOWTITLE eq Google*

There are other filters and options you can use with taskkill. Check out the help taskkill /?
