Whats a zombie window? Its a window with no process. Every window should have a process associated with it. When that process closes, so should its window. But if the process closes some how without ever closing the window, it turns into a Zombie window.
Zombie windows are bad because they can't be closed and they prevent you from shutting down, and logging out of windows. Windows gets stuck trying to close them.
I have never seen a solution on how to get rid of them, so I came up with my own. I call it Zombie Killer.
What it does is list all your windows and lets you select one to close. You just need to double click the window in the list and it will be handled.
