Process Lasso 3.06.6

Process Lasso is a software that will improve system responsiveness and stability.
Process Lasso is a unique new technology intended to automatically restrain running processes that are consuming too many CPU cycles.
Often times, processes that are out-of-control can bring an NT system to a near halt. Once one or more processes have become CPU resource hogs, termination of the offending process(es) is very difficult since it is nearly impossible to even open the task manager.
With Process Lasso, these processes are temporarily reduced in priority so that the system is returned to a responsive level. Process Lasso can even work when multiple processes are responsible for a decrease in system responsiveness.
In addition, Process Lasso offers capabilities such as default process priorities, termination of disallowed processes, and logging of processes executed.
Process Lasso is extremely efficient and itself has almost no CPU usage. The core engine, called the Process Governor, is separated from the GUI so that one can completely close the GUI and keep the primary functions of Process Lasso operating.
The core engine can even be run as a system service so that it starts before any user is logged in. However, the GUI itself is so optimal that we recommend leaving it running so it can quickly be accessed in times when it is needed.
NOTE: Free for home and academic users. Commercial users need to register the program after 14 days of evaluation.

Enhancements:
- Change.GUI: Now has a much more accurate per-process historical average CPU utilization calculation
- Change.GUI: The aggressively trim GUI working set option now defaults to TRUE. This will cause it to more aggressively trim its virtual memory. This does not affect the core engine, whose memory use is negligible already
- Change.Core: Changed default OOC settings a bit, lowering the per-process restraint threshold
- Addition.InstallHelper: Added capability to set the show all processes option for Vista UAC at install-time
- Addition.InstallHelper: Added capability to tweak GUI startup type as well as governor startup type
- Addition.InstallHelper: Second dialog, wizard-look, to make room for more options
- Change.Installer: Added new section to launch the InstallHelper and let the user configure Process Lasso before starting it
- Change.Installer: Several misc. tweaks
- Change.Installer: Update to NSIS 2.39
