Killing long running processes

Am running Red Hat Linux 6.1 and 6.2 servers. Are there any scripts available that can monitor currently running programs. If they are running for x minutes, kill that process (and an email to admin would be nice).

We run many servers with hosting clients, and there are always a few scripts that get out of hand by clients :-( They will be running for 600+ mins.

Before I go writing my own, thought I would check first.

Thanks!

David
