Using Xprop

Make sure the window whose class you're trying to find is open, then open your favorite terminal and run xprop like so:

xprop | grep "WM_CLASS"

Your mouse should turn into a cross hair. Click on the window whose class you're trying to find. The terminal output should now show it to you.
