Looking at your script, I think I can suggest a simpler version
(requires the slay program - just do an FM search, which kills off all
processes for a certain user name);
#!/bin/sh
#This script will kill all processes started by normal users. It should
#be run from cron daily at midnight. The script does not:
#Affect root or system users (such as appache).
#By using home directories as refferences, we can rule out a system user
#that was accidently misnumbered.
cd /home
for I in *;do slay $I;done
#end of script.
