I used PC Mag's utility EndItAll for ages and it annoyed me that it would not allow you to kill quite a few running tasks. I also found that if my system was seriously stressing out due to a locked program that EndItAll often took more system resources to start up and list processes than my CPU could handle during the overload.Dariusz Stanislawek Taskill
Taskill is a process viewer and killer. It works in GUI or CLI mode and can kill multiple instances of the same task in one go.
Then I discovered this quick dirty little task killer by Dariusz Stanislawek - who is one of my favourite programmers next to Mark Russinovich (of Systernals) and NirSofer.
I keep a shortcut for it in the Quick Launch bar for instant access and in the whole time I've been using it I've only had to cold boot as a result of a system lockup twice.
I highly recommend you check out all the other lean clean freeware utils that Dariusz writes (link above) and I hope y'all enjoy this one.
