Limiting to one instance

Is the preferred method of not allowing multiple instances of a game to run 
at the same to use named mutexes via CreateMutex and test for it's 
exeistence on startup?

I found an example on MSDN, but it seems targeted at .NET applications. I'm 
not sure if there's an easier way to prevent mutliple launches for a Win32 
app.

Thanks,
