Well, there are the so called zombie processes (I think they are called
stuck (?) under OSX) that indeed cannot be killed. A reboot is the only
way to get rid of them.
When you say you can not restart the system, you must mean the GUI
restart. I *think* if you type reboot/shutdown from the terminal, it
should do as instructed (not sure however, and can't really try it
right now...)
Hope this helps,
Costas

you should be able to use "top" and then "kill -9" the
offending process. or you could use the activity
monitor and kill it from there.
I might be getting slightly off topic here, but does anyone ever have
a problem where they simply can't kill a process?
I've had this happen on my dual G5 running Panther a few times now, it
doesn't seem to be any particular application, it just seems to happen
with one or two seemingly random processes sometimes. It doesn't
happen very often, but when it does I can't do a force quit and no
amount of sending kill -9 from the command line will end the process
(or processes) either, in fact I can't even restart the system (it
just hangs if I try). I have to manually power down :-(. It makes me
very thankful for the journalling filesystem.
