Active CPU (ACPU) - easy to use tool for Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000 that
enables you to watch a graphical representation of your CPU's activity.
When ACPU is running, an accurate miniature CPU usage gauge appears on
the taskbar on the end opposite the "Start" button. When you touch it
with the cursor, it displays the percentage of processor use in text
format.
