Developer’s Description

By iMP Production

Terminate the active process, or all but the ones marked safe, using a hotkey.

Active Process Killer is a program that runs in the tray. By using a hotkey (shift-pause), this program will terminate the active process by the same means of terminating it using the taskmanager, but without having to select the process. This can be useful for e.g. fullscreen applications that have frozen. Using another hotkey (shift-end) and holding it for a few seconds, you can terminate all applications that is not on the UTP (UnTerminatable Processes) list.Countless times over the years have games frozen with a black screen, not allowing people to use the taskmanager to terminate it. Thats what gave me the idea to create this app. And with it, most processes can be terminated instantly.

Pros
Works well with Windows 7 Home Edition (64-Bit). For me, it now replaces PC World's EndItAll2, which worked well with Windows XP but doesn't work with Windows 7 at all.
Cons
TIP: You need to hold down both 'Shift' key and 'End' key for about 1-2 seconds, without releasing either, for countdown to start working. Many users (like me) are used to tapping both keys simultaneously faster than that.
Summary
In my humble opinion, the countdown is a very neat feature! I like this little program!
