6. Daphne
Daphne is a killer of running processes. This program allows you to shut down running tasks in four different ways: you can kill them right now or at a specific time, in two ways: normally or "politely." If you choose to stop a process "politely," you should keep in mind that if a process has something important to do, it can't close. For the cases when it is hard to match up a program with its running process, Daphne, like Process Explorer, offers a useful tool called Find. Unlike Process Explorer, you can also use this feature to kill a task by dragging the target on its window. Another feature provided by Daphne is called Traps. Using this tool you can create a trap for a process. A trap is a pre-specified set of rules that are applied to a specific task when it appears. This feature is handy when you have a process that consumes many resources when it starts, and you cannot kill it.
