Tired of using the classic Windows's Task Manager? Want to get more informations about the processes and applications loaded into your PC's memory, including sniffers and hooks? Advanced viruses, spyware and rootkits work by changing API results. This API is used by standard Task Manager. Most trojans and viruses put themselves to the autostart, andor, must run as a process, all of this without your knowledge. Of course having a good anti-virus and anti-trojans software is a must, but the key problem is that a certain trojanvirus may not be detected by this programs yet. Want to kill some harmful and unknown processes running on your computer? Be careful when ending a process. If you end an application, you will lose unsaved data. If you end a system service, some part of the system may not function properly. How should we do? Take it easy! A process monitor and manager can help you a lot. Here is an easy to use yet powerful enough process monitor and manager tool I will recommend to you. That is Advanced Task Manager. Following are the detailed introductions of it. Follow me and view how excellent it is now!

Advanced Task Manager helps us detect and banish rogue programs from our computer. With Advanced Task Manager we can detect and kill spyware even if it's so new that it's not recognized by any programs as such. Advanced Task Manager shows us exactly what is running on our computer, including hidden processes. It gives us lots of information and calculates a security risk rating for each process. Advanced Task Manager also tells us whether a program connects to the Internet, watches what we type, is an Internet server, is hidden, is encrypted on disk, has invisible windows, etc. The security risk rating indicates the likelihood of the process of being a virus, spyware, malware, trojan, etc. If we discover a process we don't want to run on our computer we can quarantine it so it doesn't start anymore.

Here are some key features and advantages of Advanced Task Manager include:

Advanced Task Manager offers us far more information that the classic Windows Task Manager by providing additional security related data and allowing us to quarantine suspect processes. It was designed to improve the original Windows software; it will run as a separate program, without interfering with the original one.

Advanced Task Manager consists of the following tools: Programs; Startup; DLL Files; Performance; Internet Connections; File Use.

Programs - This tool helps us see all the programs (also called processes) running on our computer and shows us detailed information about them.

Startup programs - The Startup Manager gives us control over the programs that are automatically started by Windows, and offers us detailed information about each one of them, including advice about what the program does and whether we should disable it or not. Advanced Task Manager includes a huge knowledge base containing startup program descriptions.

The DLL Files tool - This tool helps us explore the .DLL files currently loaded by the programs that are running. We can list the .DLLs by program - that means the first level of the tree represents programs, and when we expand a tree node (by clicking on the small plus icon), we will see the .DLL files used by that program.

Performance - The Performance tool shows us information about how our computer is currently performing. CPU Usage offers a gauge and chart which show us how busy our computer's CPU is at the moment. In the case of multicore or multi-CPU computers, an average for all the cores is calculated and displayed. Internet and network connections shows us the current download and upload speed, and also the IP addresses, Mac addresses, and the connection's speed.

Internet Connections - The Internet Connections tool shows us: The outgoing Internet connections that were created by the programs on our computer. The ports opened by programs on our computer, waiting for an incoming connection. A port number is somewhat like a telephony system extension number. Each connection between two programs has two port numbers, one for each end of the connection.

File Use - The File use tool provides information about which files are open. Programs running on our computer shows us the programs that are currently running. We can select a program from this list to see which files it has opened. Files opened by the program selected above shows us which files, folder or pipes are opened by the program we selected by clicking in the list above. A program needs to open a file in order to read or write information to that file. The same is true for folders (also called directories). A special kind of program, called a pipe, is used for communicating between two programs. Many modern programs on Windows or Linux use pipes to communicate between themselves. The File Use tool also shows us information about which pipes a program has opened or created.

In addition, Advanced Task Manager provides a free trial for us. It is a standalone software and does not need any extra software and hardware requirement. Advanced Task Manager does not contain any adware or spyware. It works with most recent variants of Windows. With all these features, simple interface, excellent usability, and free trial period - why are you still reading? Download the free trial now and experience what powerful and effective it is at once!

Advanced Task Manager allows you to view all running processes on your computer, along with an assessment that indicates if the process has characteristics that are usually found with malicious programs. This indicator is not conclusive and relies on the expertise of the user to determine whether the process should be terminated or removed. It provides you with a detailed report that shows what the rating is based on (e.g. not certified, acts as a server, no file description etc.). If you decide to remove a process, you can either terminate it, uninstall it or move it into a quarantine. In addition to running processes, Advanced Task Manager also displays a list of all startup programs, active Internet connections and lets you search for DLLs and processes by keyword. While Advanced Task Manager can be quite useful for tech savvy users, it should not be considered by novice computer users.
