i'm sorry ,i didnt mean to imply that hoster is stopping other programs, i wanted to stop other programs from running in the background so as not to slow down my laptop while i'm running hoster, and i kinda know how, but , i just dont know which one is safe to stop, dont want my laptop to crash if i stop something i'm not supposed to..
