App Stop V.9 has just been released, here is the list of changes:

• Added the much requested support for background applications
• Added a UID/User-name column to the table-view
• Fixed problem where the menu icon would be really small on OS X 10.3
• Fixed a problem where checking for updated while disconnected from the internet would report than a new version is availible

Obviously the big change in this update is the support for background processes. If you are running OS X 10.3 you may experience crashes when changing preferences related to background processes. I have no idea why these crashes are occurring, hopefully I will be able to track down the problem by the 1.0 release. The 1.0 release will be bug-fixes, improved UI, internal optimizations, and improved documentation. Please let me know of any bug’s you might find with V.9 so I can fix them for a 1.0 release!
