I managed to kill (9) it and netscape died with it, which I knew was going
to happen. Sometimes, restarting e (which is fast and easy {ctrl ALT END}
and doen't interupt the applications that are running, just clears them
off the desktop and puts them back where they were, doing whatever they
were doing) does the trick. Sometimes I have to restart X. Sometimes
restarting X doesn't work.
