Windows has a feature that will automatically close those “non-responsive” program files that you typically have to intervene with (CTRL + ALT +DELETE style). Go to Start -> Run -> REGEDT32 and find/select HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop. Change the AutoEndTasks key from “0″ to “1.” Now, non-responsive programs will automatically be closed.
