[plug] unkillable proces

[William Kenworthy]

I have an unkillable process using all spare cpu cycles.  It just shrugs
off kill -9 ...

The original shell has exited, and the parent process has gone as well -
but still shows the pid on ps aux.

Is there anyway to kill it or is it reboot?  Its not a drama except some
long running jobs (weeks) are running at -19 and are not getting a look
in.
