Maybe you should try wget instead of lynx, which is a command-line-tool
for getting html-pages. The effekt on the server-side ist the same, 
because both programms send a a GET-request to the Web-Server.

That way, you do not need to kill lynx. But if you want to kill a process 
and do not know the pid, you can use killall to kill a process by its name.
