title: Are User Objects just like weak pointers?
body: <p>I was studying <em>Task Manager</em> in detail, there I found column called <em>USER Objects</em>. Now when I tried to search for it's exact meaning, I got following description,</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows/what-task-manager-memory-columns-mean#1TC=windows-7" rel="nofollow">Task Manager Columns Description</a> </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The number of USER objects currently being used by the process. A USER
    object is an object from Window Manager, which includes windows,
    menus, cursors, icons, hooks, accelerators, monitors, keyboard
    layouts, and other internal objects.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Does this mean, USER object is like weak pointer to objects like Cursor, Icons, Monitor etc, which will be shared by all the running applications?</p>
