iam using mandriva 2010.2 i dont know if it is same with your distro.

To kill process without using commands on terminal.
You can go to System Monitor. You can found it on system tab, and located on Administration.

Hope this help.

Perhaps you could explain just what your objection is to the kill command. The only way to kill a process is to send that process a signal that causes it to terminate. The rather poorly named "kill()" system call is the way to send a signal (which could be SIGKILL, SIGTERM, or any other signal) to a process, and the kill command (or its built-in equivalent in most shells) is the user interface to that system call. Any method of killing a process is going to use that same mechanism. If you're doing this from within a C program, you can just use the kill() system call. Otherwise, just what is the issue with using the kill command?

How to kill without the kill command
 
Code:
ps aux | grep bird | egrep -v "/bin/sh|grep"
Your *grep and/or "ps aux" may be different!...

outputs:
Code:
jj      32428 55.2  0.8 368556 68796 ?        Rl  12:37  4:36 /usr/lib/thunderbird-3.1.9/thunderbird-bin
Enter the .fu!
Code:
fuser -k /usr/lib/thunderbird-3.1.9/thunderbird-bin
Sounds like an "educational" Question to me, but I enjoyed the challenge. :)

Auch! Do try:
Code:
ps -C bird
or better:
Code:
pgrep bird

Chris:
fuser requires the /path/to/open_handle
so to keep in the spirit of the OP to "not use" kill, that's what I came up with.

Thanks!
