With the default Windows task manager, you can only kill one process at a time and there is no advanced option to kill processes based on criteria. Auto Kill Any Process is a very useful utility, to kill Multiple-Sets of different processes at once, by simply launching the program. This can come in handy if you want to cleanup relevant processes, after working with any application, or if you want to clear a set of expendable processes before starting another RAM intensive application, in just a few seconds, instead of using the tedious task manager.
