KEEP THAT USER OUT! 
Ever get into one of
 those pesky admin wars
 or need to keep the
 developers off of your
 system for a few minutes
 without taking the system
 to single user mode?
 
 This nasty little script
 will do the trick.
 
 [root@foo /]# while true
 > do
 > kill -9 $(ps -aux |grep username | awk '{ print $2 }' )
 > sleep 2
 > done
 
 This can make you the life
 of the party (At work)
