This is on a GNU/Linux system, I don't own a copy of windows. :D
and unfortunately, the distro uses KDE4 so the process manager is no
longer available.
[ completely separate issue there, KDE4.x is directly comparable to
windows vista ( useless ), but it won't be killed off by the devs,
they think no usability is a good thing. ]

I went hunting for the process manager, to specifically shut down the
seamonkey processes, not available with the KDE4.x UI any more. Even
went searching through the 10,000 packages in the package manger, not
available for install. Which means the only way to shut seamonkey down
completely is to reboot the system.
