GOMF version 2 and later includes a program called "nuke" that usually
does a reasonable job of killing a task.  Be aware that killing a task
does not free up all the resources it was using (nuke cleans up what it
can, but cannot get everything) so after a few nukes you need to reboot
to reclaim those resources.
