There is a great feature that comes default in Ubuntu and Gnome called Force Quit. It happens to everyone, once in a while certain applications become unresponsive and freeze (ie..Firefox... ). Instead of opening up your System Monitor, looking for the process and killing it. In 2 clicks you can have this application terminated. Force Quit is an icon that goes on your gnome menu like I have below.
Installation
To add this icon Right click on the main part of your gnome panel and choose Add To Panel. Look for Force Quit and click add. Thats it!!! Now whenever a program freezes click this icon and then click inside the window of the application you want to terminate.
