You can call Application.Exit, which is a fairly gentle shutdown, or call Environment.Exit, which is equivalent to killing the process (very abrupt end).

Neither are what I would prefer to do, as in the past there have always been some resources that didn't get cleaned up. In the .NET world, they'll probably get freed ... eventually.

I would try and find a way to gracefully unwind your call stack, cleaning up as you go.
