I have this same problem (see open office freezes thread). I was wondering what was going on such that it is possible to create processes which cannot be killed. This seems to me like it should not be permitted by the operating system. If root decides a process needs to go then it should go, especially a user land process. Would it not be possible to find out what is going wrong with OO.org and use whatever it is that is going wrong in a process fork bomb? I'm not going to claim that I know anything about operating systems, but it seems to me that if I say die then the kernel should simply force closed any file handles, free the process memory and remove the process from the process list.
