Sometimes when I try to run everybuddy, a little window pops up and says it's already running and gives a pid. I don't know how it could be running when I've just booted up the machine, but I've always been able to kill the pid and start everybuddy after that. Well, it's happened again, and the kill isn't working. I've done kill pid and kill -9 pid and neither work. I still get the "already running" message. When I ps, it doesn't show up in the list. What else could be causing this and how can I stop it from happening? Has anyone else had a similar problem? Thanks! Lorry
