Can anyone help by telling me a way or means that I can use to kill about a thousand zombie processes together at once?

Thank you for your help.

Mike is quite right - though a more civilised method is to find our what's starting those processes and then not waiting for them to finish - which is what turns them into zombies in the first place.
