Was browsing the web and I came across this software program called Process Explorer
What this program does is, it shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.

where you guys been ? :D.. I've been using process explorer for years..
Mark Russinovich wrote that in 1996.. It's great for seeing things that
task manager doesn't show.. I was shocked when I first saw how much
my cpu was being "hogged" by a process called sm56.. a stupid little (useless)
modem thingamajig..

I like this part of the tool too..
Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded. The unique capabilities of Process Explorer make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work.


sysinternals has a LOT of other good (free) tools as well.
