hey,

i did sort of say it was easy enough to do in a crude shell script at the lug, 
so sure enough, here one is... it doesnt do any "warning" or anything, it 
will just kill them as soon as it is run.

it should work "as is", but it assumes your user's normal shell of choice is 
bash, you can change this by editing GOOD_SHELL="/bin/bash" at the top of the 
script.

If you plan on killing / disabling anyone other than yourself, you will need 
to run this script as root.

I'm sure the some of the list will think of a better way to do various parts 
of the script and maybe add a timer or something :)
