Patrol Car

WinPatrol -- a great tool for keeping an eye on system processes and files -- has been updated to 20.0.2011. Support for 64-bit Windows installations has been improved, and WinPatrol is generally more responsive now than in previous versions. WinPatrol's "move to delayed start" option provides a nice way to improve your system's startup time, and it has also been tweaked for better operation on Windows x64.

WinPatrol 2011 is better at detecting processes that may be emerging threats -- though you'll need a PLUS subscription to take advantage. The $29.95 fee gets you a lifetime of upgrades, so WinPatrol is well worth considering if you're keen on knowing what's happening under the hood of your Windows OS.
