Sysinternals Utilities Index

Everyone here at M.I.C.A. is very thankful for the work by Sysinternals.

The Sysinternals web site was created in 1996 by Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell to host their advanced system utilities and technical information. And, after many hard years of hard work and high recognition from the IT community, Microsoft acquired Sysinternals in July, 2006 (this was a very smart move by Microsoft).

Mark is now dug in at Microsoft, working on the many new exciting projects for XP and Vista. Whether you’re an IT Pro or a newbie  developer, you’ll find a Sysinternals utility to help you manage, troubleshoot or diagnose your next Windows systems & applications adventure!

If you have a question about a tool or how to use them, please visit the Sysinternals Forum for answers and help from other users and the  moderators.
