Sometimes firefox doesn't really exit (despite all its windows being closed)

Is there a way to explain to gnome that when I say shutdown, I mean
SHUTDOWN NOW, REGARDLESS OF STUPID BROKEN PROCESSES?
Talk to it nicely; it is very sensitive to tone and is less likely to
respond to being shouted at.
(If you were hoping for a technical answer to a question devoid of
technical detail I am sorry to diappoint you).
I've found threatening to reformat and install Windoze does wonders :)
Also muttereing xface and kde can work too :)
