One other detail noone seems to have mentioned, typing control Z stops the
current process, you probably did it by accident editing or such...

You can't kill a stopped job because when you kill something it gets 
a signal teloing it to exit, but it can't exit because it's not allowed to
do anything at all when it's stopped (It's not getting any cpu time)
kill -9 will kill it however because the kernel trashes the process
regardless, but it's not really a nice thing to do ;0
