Task Killer 2.30

Homepage: http://rsdsoft.com/task_killer/index.php4
allows you to quickly terminate applications, processes, windows, to start/stop Windows services and etc. ie. you may "kill" a frozen (hanged up) application, process or service by clicking on the windows taskbar's Task Killer icon and choosing application (process) from the menu list. You will forget clumsy key combination Ctrl-Alt-Del and standard Task Manager window forever!
Features:
Very fast and neat way to unload ("kill") freezed ("hanged") applications (tasks), processes or services. Shows tasks, windows and(or) services in popup menu.
"Smart Kill" mode - is more safe mode to kill program than standard windows Task Manager.
Applications memory usage control.
Flexible settings.
Global hotkeys.
User firendly interface.
Very low process usage and memory usage.
Freeware!
Download the setup file : http://rsdsoft.com/zip/tksetup.exe
and extract with universal extractor

Settings: application folder (taskkiller.ini)

System Requirements: for Win95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP

Nice find,
I think I prefer Taskill http://www.ozemail.com.au/~nulifetv/freezip/freeware/
for it's simplicity but the services menu on this adds a good touch.
