That function cannot be performed from within batch files.

When a program window is closed, the application receives the WM_CLOSE_QUERY message, and must then determine an appropriate response. This is normally used by programs to provide "This document has not been saved, do you want to save it now" feedback, but it is possible for a programmer to write code that instead minimizes the window instead. If the application does not modify the parameters of this message, then the default response would be the WM_CLOSE message, which would close the window.

The Command Window (as are most other applications windows) is programmed to follow standard rules and to close when the red X is clicked.

Unless you are willing to hack (or totally re-write) the CMD.EXE program, that behaviour cannot be altered.

Kk thank you very much any alternatives?

I don't see how using PING and redirecting the output to the NUL device will help to alter the behaviour of clicking the Red X...

What you might also want to try is the Windows PowerShell 2.0 scripting language. It is available for download from Microsoft for Vista and Windows XP, and is included as standard with Windows 7.
PowerShell is far more advanced than simple Batch File scripting...
