is a task management utility that displays a list of running tasks, schedules jobs, and notifies you when there is a problem or the job is complete.
For example, you may be running an application that is never supposed to quit (or maybe it's just unstable). Lookout can manage the task for you, automatically restart it and send you e-mail to let you know it happened. Or, maybe you're just running a long spreadsheet calculation. Lookout can run it for you and beep at you when it's done.
In addition to monitoring for tasks shutting down, Lookout can notify you that a requested task has started properly. Lookout can also monitor the Event Log on machines running Windows NT and notify you when a new event is entered in a certain log or when a given task logs an event.
Lookout can notify you by playing a sound file, sending e-mail, popping open a message box, sending a fax, paging you via modem, or, for Windows NT, appearing in the event log.
