It would help if we knew a bit more about your setup, like what OS you're using for example. A simple end process or KILL should get you up and running, but oviously you're concerned about how it got that way in the first place. How long have you had the problem, have you done anything different lately, what sort of setup do you have, is this a company computer on a network, or a single system, etc etc.
