Process Explorer from Sysinternals

[TadW]

This is one of those freeware tools no Windows XP user should be living without:

The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you’ll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you’ll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.

What's new in Version 8.60:

* Multi-row tabs on process properties dialog
* Image signing verification on process image properties dialog
* Mini-CPU usage graph on toolbar
* Command-line option for specifying Process Explorer priority
* Manual refresh (F5) forces recheck of job and .NET process status
* Single-clicking on tray icon minimizes and restores main window
