Excellent tool today, already given away several times in the past, which can definitely put the Windows Task Manager in the dust.
Its best feature is without doubt its capability to show even the HIDDEN apps and processes running automatically on Windows startup (some doubts about its ability to get rid of TROJANS).
So overall it deserves a THUMBS UP!
30 bucks? Well, well, well.....

BEST (and some of them even BETTER) FREEWARE ALTERNATIVES

* WINPATROL (my Personal First Choice and in my view much better than Anvir Task Manager as security/system monitoring app)

I have version 6.7 from an earlier giveaway so I will gladly install this update. If you already have this on your system, you only need to install it. Your copy will remain registered so there is no need to enter the key.

This program comes in a few different versions. We get the middle of the road version which has always served me well. Check out the comparison of the different versions here:

During the installation you will be asked to install extra software. It is plainly marked so just uncheck the option to opt out. As for the program I got the first version several years ago from GOTD so I am used to having it running. I like it and would recommend this to anyone wanting to check it out. If you miss out there are other alternatives, both free and paid. Winpatrol is very popular. They have both a free and paid version. Check them out here:

All in all, there is a lot to like about this program so I would say thank you to the GOTD team and to AnVir Software

I don't appreciate the way this software installation tries to sneak in a download of trailware of another paid program called Reg Organizer.

I greatly despise Facebook and wouldn’t be caught dead creating an account; so it really irritates me that increasingly, like AnVir today, companies are resorting to the tactic of offering the special software deal only to Facebook users. Anvir, you just lost me as a future customer.

The website shows only a free version and a 49.95 pro version, where does this 29.95 version fit in??
