Task Killer
I just can't stand Task Manager. It will never kill a process when I want it to. Like, when I say "kill this process", I want it to leave a smoking hole in my screen when it kills it. A little nuclear mushroom cloud on the screen would be a nice touch. And, if it means that the OS comes crashing down and I have to reboot the computer, or even buy a new one - that would be fine. Just kill the freaking process when I tell youo to kill it and I'll deal with the consequences. But don't leave it running when I tell you to kill it. Don't do that. That's a FAIL.
So, I decided I had to find a better solution. I'm trying out Task Killer, a shareware solution. It can't be any worse than Task Manager.

Try Process Explorer from Sysinternals ( sysinternals.com )
The second item in the "Options" menu allows it to "Replace Task Manager."
I have this setup on every Windows server I administer.
