I guess you can't do that with web apps. Actually, even regular apps
(Eudora, Word, Photoshop...) can always be stopped via task manager.
Furthermore, there can always be network failures and many other problems.
So you should rewrite your app to deal with that case.

Anyway, it if is important I suppose you can use your web app to launch a
non-interactive script in the background (just like when you type "nohup
wget www.site.com &" in a Unix command prompt).

Have a look at the function ignore_user_abort().
