really force quit application
I downloaded a file in Firefox. After downloading the download manager scanned the file for virusses first. This is done automatically in Firefox's download manager. During this scan Firefox (and the download manager) froze. I looked in the Task Manager and for both processes had 'not responding'. So I tried to terminate Firefox through Task Manager but it still wouldn't close. It kept showing windows 7's rotating circle. I finally rebooted the system and did a harddrive check. Luckily it was ok after shutting down manually.
But how can I REALLY force an application to quit? Even if quitting an application through Task Manager doesn't do it?
