Phreakwenci:

Please do the following:

Open the Applications folder
Open the Utilities folder
Start the Terminal program
Expand it to the point where the top bar states 200x24 (or something
similar)
Type in ps -ef | grep winehelper
This will give you a line of information you are interested in the
second number
type in kill -term <second number from above>

I don't know which version of Wine for MacOSX you are using and this is
the quickest method to stop winehelper.

Start the Wine process again.  You should NOT get this error message. 
If you are please advise of the following:

Version of MacOSX you are using.
The processor type from about this mac

The version of Wine for MacOSX you are using, and where you obtained it
(Zach Drayer, Mike Kronenberg, MacPorts, Fink, etc.)

The error you received above is a version mismatch between Winehelper
and the attempted version of wine you are running.
