When Clarke pulled the kill switch, A.L.I.E. was running from the Ark. Presumable the kill switch terminated the program where it was running, i.e. it terminated the program on the Ark, otherwise it wouldn't make sense.

Did the kill switch also delete the program? The general assumption is yes, the program was deleted. However, it is within the realms of possibility that the program was just exited, that the code still exists on the Ark, and it could be restarted...
