ps ax | grep [whatever] | awk '{print $1}' | xargs kill -9
always worked for me. Put it in a shell like this:
#!/bin/sh
ps ax | grep $1 | awk '{print $1}' | xargs kill -9
and call it toast or something, then you can 'toast netscape'.
You probably have something similar called "killall" on your system
already. I've never dug into it to see how it works but it doesn't
always work for me whereas the above command line does every time.
