Thanks for the reply Mike and Chris.

To funny. As I was logged-in via dialup reading Chris's response, I hit
 Ctrl-Alt-Backspace. This brought me back to what looked like the tail
end of my bootup sequence just before KDM starts when Gentoo first
starts up, but had a text login at the very bottom of the screen. It
stayed like that for about maybe 5 seconds and then switched to the KDM
login box. When I logged back in I noticed that the modem never
disconnected but nothing was running in the bottom of the desktop. 

So I'm assuming that all of the browser sessions along with KPPP were
still running even know nothing appeared to be running visually at the
bottom of the desktop. 

This allows me to logback in again but do I need to go and kill the
prior running processes first? Sorry.. I've never done this before so
this is a little new. I guess I got my homework cut out for me today,
reading wise. Heh.. :P

Thanks,
JBanks
