At times, computer use tends to involve doing a lot of things at the same time. Browse the internet, check e-mail, calculate a spread sheet, use instant messengers when the boss isn’t looking! etc.etc. Some of the times, as you’ve probably experienced, this makes your computer creep along like a tortoise.

Generally whenever this occurs, it’s because of a program—a process— taking up a good deal more than its fair share of the processor—the computer’s brainpower. Downloading a large file, for instance, can make all else seem to come to a sudden stop. Who would have thought that one task could force all else to have to sit there and wait it out, along with you!

Here is a potential answer to this issue.

Process Lasso is a program for monitoring your computer and what it’s up to. It keeps tabs on what programs are utilizing your CPU’s time, and when it catches one that’s hogging the CPU, it automatically lowers its priority, getting it to be more considerate of the other things that are also running. You are able to manually set it as well, to lower the priority on things you run in the background. Now you will be able to get the things you’re working on done, while background tasks chill out and take their time!

Version 2.5.1 is the latest version released on November 23^rd and it features a better overall design than the previous version of this software package.

It is not just limited to applications however as you can tie keywords to any file type that you want and open that file type in the process when you type in the keyword.

It is an absolute godsend for someone with too much on their hard drive and not enough in their brain’s memory to remember where everything is.

LangOver is a software program that is perhaps not as useful to the wide range of internet users as some other programs might be, but the people that find it useful find it extremely useful and for that reason it deserves to be featured here. The latest version of the program, released on November 21^st, contains support for more languages as well as a more intuitive setup.

The modern internet world is a world of many languages and for this reason the traditional English keyboard just does not cut it anymore. Some people need to be able to type in multiple languages for their business or personal lives. The LangOver software package allows you to do this and switch back and forth between the languages at will, effectively fixing a keyboarding problem that has plagued non-English users of keyboards for years.

All you have to do is select a specific alphabet to the keyboard that you want to imprint on the keys and press F10 to see the end results. In this way you can change your keyboard keys to correspond to the actual letters for your language and this in turn makes it a lot easier to type things out as they come in. For anyone that speaks a language other than English, this utility is an absolute must have. The fact that it is free just makes it better.
