App Stop is a powerful application engineered to allow you to take control of the applications running on your computer allowing you to increase the speed of your computer. App Stop allows you to peform many operations on your applications such as pausing, setting processor priority, and force quitting. App Stop is great for people with slower computers, or for people who run processor hungry applications (such as video editors), who need to squeeze every ounce of speed out of their computer.

- Improved crash/bug reporting (now outputs stack traces and notifies user of exceptions)
- You can now specify a global shortcut that can be used to bring the Application Manager forward
- Improved 'hide and stop' reliability
- Your filter criteria will now be preserved between App Stop startups
