I can confirm this bug with a fully updated Hardy as of this moment. It
applies to both the Hardy version of Wine and to version 1.0-rc1.
Ies4linux is version 2.99.0.1. The bug also applies to all versions of
Internet explorer that ies4linux offers.

Symptoms: 
1) When ie6 is started, CPU usage goes to about 76% for both the wineserver and 
IEXPLORE.EXE processes (two cores). It does not matter what IE is doing; going 
to "about:blank" leaves the CPU usage the same.

2) When I exit IE, the call to wine does not terminate. IEXPLORE.EXE
stops using CPU, but instead wineserver goes to 100% CPU usage. The
processes wineserver, explorer.exe and IEXPLORE.EXE remain. At this
point it is not possible to start a new IE.

3) After doing wineserver -k (with the proper WINEPREFIX), the
wineserver terminates, but leaves explorer.exe and IEXPLORE.EXE running,
the latter defunct. The call to wine still has not returned. At this
point a new IE can be started.

4) It is possible to kill off the two remaining processes, after which
everything is fine and the call to wine returns.
