Even though it's not his specialty, Dave has a good eye for freebies. Check out this one.
Update: Now there's a portable version.
Quote from Dave at Dave's Computer Tips:
AnVir Task Manager - WOW. I tried this software on the suggestion of a comment in a previous newsletter. It is now my default task manager, replacing the built-in Windows task manager. AnVir gives detailed information about every running process and startup program. It also allows you to monitor system health by displaying CPU temp, memory usage, and more! - XP/Vista
Another great way to analyze your PCs processes is to use ProcessExplorer. Also check out ProcessLibraryUpdates for free process identification software.
Quote from the website

It gives you detailed information about every process that is running, and about applications running automatically on Windows startup including all hidden applications.
