Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008, Windows 2003/2008/Home Server/Vista/XP / Shareware; $9.95 / 6,587 downloads

Process Lasso improves system performance, responsiveness, and stability during high loads through dynamic adjustments to process priority classes. It can also automatically terminate undesired processes, apply default priorities and CPU affinities to processes, limit the number of instances a process can have, and log all processes. It is not a task manager replacement, but does have task manager like capabilities to compliment its primary functions.

Process Lasso is free for home and academic use, though there are some tolerable nags for the Pro build shown after the product has been installed an extended period. The free build is not in any way crippled. Commercial use requires purchase within 14 days of evaluation. Despite being free for home use, it is now classified as Shareware to prevent any user confusion or complaints.

    Generally does what it says, dubious though that may be. However, the GUI's process list is horribly amateurish and inefficient. In times of system stress it consumes so much cpu that the applications is effectively frozen and useless, just when you need it the most. This person need to learn how to code it so the list fields are updated where needed and not completely erased then redrawn line by line and character by character. Unusable.

    Hate nag screens. There are other free tools that does the same things and better.

    Now that its listed as Shareware... nags for purchase can be allowed.
    I for one don't think it does enough to warrant shareware vs freeware.
    But now that it is relisted as a shareware program, I'll give it 3 stars.

    I don't use it on my machines anymore because basically I didn't see much of a difference with or without.. even when my duo core or my quad core went 100%.

    Bait and switch, once was free with all features. then features were taken out and made available for the "pro" version only. No opens with a countdown nag screen. Back to process tamer; this one is now banished.

    2 stars for the NAG!
    If it is supposed to be free... let it be free of NAGS as well. If you want a PRO version, offer it with something that would make it inviting to buy.
    I've used the 64 bit version for a while... and until they started the NAG version, it did fairly well what it was designed to do. But now I have uninstalled it permanently. I wouldn't have even minded paying for it... but not this way. Either let it go for free with a pro version, or don't let it go free at all.

    Hey dear friend i know this things only that Process Lasso improves system performance, responsiveness, and stability in high load situations. It watches for processes consuming too much of the CPU, so can you provide me more details
