This looks cool, but it's a little advanced for my ancient desktop.  :(

I wonder why ctrl-alt-del doesn't have a complete list of running processes, only including some.

That's a good question.

I tell you why I like this one, all those SCVHost.exe files that run, CTRL-Alt-DEL does not tell you what each one is for. at least this one will give you a markdown of each process, and what program is using it.
