I find killing it by hand labourious so I used the following command to clean up and have now defined it as an alias to make life easier.

pgrep wine|while read p; do kill -9 $p ; done;

in fact it seems even kill -9 cant clean up some times.

Besides the zombie processes mentionned before, some processes may be stopped (e.g. by the debugger) and won't die until you send them a CONT signal.
