then i think you should try to. 1.3.3 contains a lot of fixes/changes

do you mean it doesn't show names of all events or only those that are
leaking? HandleEx does show the names for named events, so we have 2

help to track them down) or Process Explorer is missing needed
functionality in which case you should try to use original HandleEx.
