If you run Process Viewer, you can Quit the highlighted process from the menu. Or, in Terminal, type "sudo kill 1234" (without the quotes), substituting the desired PID for "1234". The Terminal will prompt you to enter your password. Another alternative is to Force Quit the app by pressing Cmd-Opt-Esc, and highlighting the desired app. Mark
