I've encountered a similar inability to force quit apps that were frozen
(mainly iTunes) with my Sony Clie pda syncing problematically to my laptop
via usb. If you have any peripherals attached you might try removing them
and seeing if problems persists. This was in Panther, not Tiger though.

All the best, Colin.
