XP SysPad

XP SysPad is a simple-to-use application that provides fast access to some important system tools. It can be handled by any type of users, regardless of their experience level.

The interface is made from a regular window with a plain appearance, where you can view a list of currently running processes (e.g. total flags, usage count, process ID) to change their priority level or terminate them.

You can access Control Panel utilities (e.g. Add/Remove Programs, Network Connections), directories (e.g. history, My Documents, Internet cache), menus, network-related tools (e.g. Content Advisor, default mail), programs (e.g. calculator, command shell), and others.

You can set the main frame to stay on top of other windows, enable XP SysPad to autorun at startup, hide the Windows taskbar and desktop icons, change the screensaver and wallpaper, and more.

XP SysPad is very light on the system resources, running on very low CPU and RAM, so it doesn't affect the overall performance of the computer. No error dialogs were shown in our tests, and the app did not hang or crash. Too bad that XP SysPad has not been updated for a long time. Other than that, the tool comes in handy to all Windows users.
