After reading a PC World Magazine article about Sudden Temporary Slowdowns (I get lots of them), I wound up looking at Process Explorer, Process Monitor, and the suite of 66 troubleshooting tools. Found a few 'neutral' forums, but came away just as confused as when I started.
Is PE a component of PM? Does PM use only part of PE? What might I gain by getting both, or lose by getting only one (probably PM)? And, since they're both contained in the Suite, would that indicate substantial difference between them?
Also, with 'Micronopoly' having absorbed the company and suppressed a Linux something-or-other, did that absorbtion possibly result in some kind of downside?
And finally, there's something called Sysinternals Antivirus that is universally hated as malware; the product is nowhere on the Sysinternals site, but neither is a disclaimer re the use of the Sysinternals name....not even in Microsoft's dot-com page.
A big Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this for me!
