Freeware Descriptions:

Process Lasso improves system performance, responsivenss, and stability in high load situations. It watches for processes consuming too much of the CPU and automatically restrains them to improve system responsiveness. It can also automatically terminate undesired processes, apply default priorities to an application each time it is run, or log all processes launched. It is not a task manager replacement, but does have task manager like capabilties only as a compliment to its core functions.
