Process Tamer is a tiny and efficient utility that runs in your system tray and constantly monitors the CPU usage of other processes. When it sees a process that is overloading your CPU, it reduces the priority of that process temporarily until the usage returns to a reasonable level.

    A nice program with nice support over at http://www.donationcoder.com/Forums/bb/index.php - all free! But if you are using it often, please consider to donate.

    This is a unique application that does exactly what it promises. If you test a lot of software, as I do, then you must run this! When you have a lot of processes running, and some are not well known, this software can mean the difference between a system crash and a minor annoyance.

    Given that Win98 is today's equivalent of DOS 3.3, Lt_Master's criticism is invalid. Process Tamer is a nifty tool to have when running long operations, among other things.

    To guy upper head:

    Well, for my Win98, it dont run.
    It says: This program must be run on Windows NT.

    A highly useful utility when running a project that includes numerous processes. Great implemention of a straightforward idea.
