any oracle developer or dba could tell you: alter system kill session 'sid,serial';
Kills any session. In Oracle you can allways kill session that have gone astray. And even if it doesn't work from sql+, you can always look op the OS-pid (in v$session) and kill the process on the os level. (Be sure that you set job_queue_processes to 0, because if you don't Oracle sometimes restarts the job).
