I was using an InstallShield when winex freezed.
So I switched to another destop, opened a terminal and typed "killall wine".
But wine wasn't killed! The frozen window was still there.

$ killall wine
$ ps -e | grep wine
23087 ?        00:00:36 wine
$ kill 23087
$ ps -e | grep wine
23087 ?        00:00:36 wine

Then I runned xkill and killed the frozen window. The window closed, but wine was still there.
I've also tried to do it as root. Nothing. wine can't be killed.

`killall -9 wine`

also, winex is no longer in portage so we arent supporting it
