currently working on undrstanding windows '98. I sometimes have problems with
the way my book is written and I believe it's somewhat misleading at times.
Recently I had a question on one of my exams that read:

Task Monitor keeps track of program launch times and number of launches to

A. be used in conjunction with Disk Defragmenter to re-organize program
files to speed launch times
B. be used by Microsoft to determine which applications you are executing
and whether you are in violation of your licenses.
C. be used in conjunction with Scandisk to ensure programs are not located
on damaged areas of the hard drive
D. As a debugging tool to be used when an application crashes .

Now I went back over the book , after answering this question wrongly, but i
never found any reference to Task Monitor, I looked it up online, Ilooked in
wikipedia, etc. So tell me is it just me or is this a misleading question?
JUst curious!

What is the answer? I would have picked D but I don't know. I have used the
task manager to close application causing problems in Windows XP. What did
they say was the correct answer?

Just curious,
Susan

The application in question isn't TASKMAN (Task Manager), it's TASKMON
(Task Monitor.)
