0. Make sure you don't use (safety 0) optimization in your code and save
your code before running an infinite loop :-)
1. Try Ctrl-Break.
2. If it does not help, right-click on the Franz Liszt (Liszt Ferenc)
head on the taskbar and select "Interrupt Lisp"
3. If that does not help, do it a few more (5?) times. You can display
the console to get a feedback.
Be prepared to sometimes get a core dump if you exercise #3 though
(maybe when safety is 0 and/or the system is in a particular state like
GCing).
All these are documented in TFM somewhere.

The interrupt thing solved the problem. Thank you greatly :)
