Why not just use the 'search' function built into explorer?

Check this site for a program called Process Explorer:

i just meant is there a way to do it with task manager, but i guess there isnt so ill just use a third party task manager. thanx
don't u want to know smth more about this process?
just try this http://www.liutilities.com/products/...rocesslibrary/ if you like....
I had often wondered, What are all these processes under task manager and what do they mean?
Found the info above VERY useful thanks guys!
Porcexpnt from sysinternals +

tells you what they are!
Love it!
Just "deleting" the file may not be the answer. I am assuming finding what the exe belongs to and where it resides yo will remove what ever it belongs to as well as any registry links to it.
It is a pity that M$ didn't allow a optional column of "file location".. but then the third part software ppl would not be needed then would they .. huh?
Cheers
