Is it possible not all pids were killed when you shut some of those down? I bring this up because I've had exactly that experience more than once with various apps. At one time or another I've shut something down only to find that my system doesn't behave properly. Lo and behold, a ps aux has sometimes revealed pids that should have been cleared are, in fact, still there. I've had to kill -9 them to get things back. I'd suggest not trusting the user-friendly scripts and higher-level viewing tools, but rather looking to the source in this situation.
