I have run into this problem as well, but it was prior to the MSBLAST fix.
There is a tool package called pstools. This has a utility named pskill, which
will kill remote processes including bpbkar32. I have not been able to pinpoint
the cause of this as of yet, but these tools offer a nice workaround.
