Hi -

I was just running "lynx" from CASCADE, a decmips machine to which I telnet
in to work.  I surfed a bit, then used "q" to quit.  It didn't quit.  Instead
it apparnetly spun its wheels for a while, driving up the load.  So I kill'd the
process.  No change.  Finally I kill -9'd the process, which worked.

Here's the PS line, from right after the 1st kill attempt:

 9185 p0 R     16:19 /afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/outland/decmipsbin/lynx.real

CHeers!
