task manager 

when your computer crashes, press CTRL-ALT-DEL.

This will bring up a program called the "task manager", which freezes all forms of input possible, other than the keys, CTRL, ALT, and DEL.

Did you know that if you press CTRL-ALT-DEL and hold it for a really long time, the task manager will come up several hundred times, thus freezing up your computer even more! Thanks Micro$oft!

Task manager 

The hitman of your computer. Kill those pesky programs that just don't leave.

Person 1: wow, how did you kill skype?
Person 2: I just used my task manager to get rid of it.

Task Manager Lag 

The Task Manager Lag comes about when the user is trying to shut a program down in one of the versions of Microsoft Windows. The Task Manager, which can be accessed by moving the Mouse-Pointer to the Taskbar at the Bottom of the screen; then using the Right-Click Button on the Mouse; which then lets you can choose the (Task Manager). In "ALL" of the versions of Microsoft Windows the Task Manager has always had a very long lag time between the point where you choose to Shut the Program down; to where the program actually closes down. This Lag-Time is something Microsoft just seems unable, or unwilling to correct.

Real Player is such junk! And every time I go to shut it down, the Task Manager Lag can be easily a minute! In over 15 years Microsoft still hasn't been able to fix this giant problem!
