Normally I would post this app in "Apps Central" (I will put a link to this thread there), but this app deserves a thread of its own.
Wiz, everyone: This is one killer app. You have to see it to believe it. I’ll put up screenies, but please get this one. It even scans your drivers for updates.
Features (honestly? Too many to list):
-Detailed information about Tasks, Processes, Modules, Startups, IE Addons, Uninstallers, Windows, Services, Drivers, Connections and Opened Files.
-Easy check of suspicious files via VirusTotal, Jotti service or our File Database.
-Easy monitoring of processes activities and System changes.
-Usage graphs of important System resources.
-Tray Hint with detailed System and Battery status
-WMI Browser and System Additional Info
-Multilanguage Support (27)
"It displays system activity with more detail than with many expensive programs. System Explorer's tight multi-tabbed dialog-box-size interface logically arranges and displays more information than most experienced users would need. The program could use an extensive Help manual, but doesn’t have one. Operating System Explorer is primarily point-and-click. On start, the app loads all information it collects. Fourteen tabs logically spread the info into manageable portions. With a click, users can monitor tasks, processes, performance, history, windows, connections, and opened files. Each tab includes detailed information about the items included. Many details listed are easily investigated with right-click access to find information online at sites like Google and ProcessLibrary. In addition to the monitoring tools, System Explorer offers single-click access to numerous Windows tools. Disk defragmenter, computer, group policy, services, and task management aren't part of the application, but are made much easier to reach.” – c|net review
