To kill a zombie you must destroy its brain whether it be with a bullet or a good old fashioned club to the forehead. Freezing them would only make them immobile. Incineration might do the trick provided that the brain throughly turned to ash. A nuclear missile would also work for zombies within a certain area but any zombie not incinerated by the detonation would become radioactive because of nuclear fallout proving an even greater threat to humanity. If something radio active got into the water it would poison you or if zombies went through crops their radioactivity would kill the crops.
According to the Zombie Survival Guide, the only way to kill a zombie is to destroy the brain. Severing the head disables the body, but the head stay's "alive". I suggest this book to anybody who is interested in zombies. It was a great read, and still one of my favorites.
there is a few problems to that shot in the brain theory.
.even if it does reside in the brain it barely uses any of the brains main functions (aside from moving) so you have to aim at a specific point in the brain which is near impossibe.
.what if it hides in the spinal cord?
.what i it infect the entire norvous system, not just the brain?

Hollywood, here I come!
Anywho, a lot of you people have just spammed the thread with the same idea. The thread's about how to kill a zombie -- not the best way to kill one.
I guess you could lace a bunch of scarecrows or dead people with gasoline -- zombies feed -- after zombies feed, light a match and throw it on them. If the brain is anywhere in the body, it would definitely burn that ol' CNS!
there is a zombie survival guide?well anyways,if it was controlled by an ultimately powerfull ovelord shooting its head off would'nt work,i say you would have to burn it to ashes.(hmmm,i wonder what that would smell like)('_'
