MPREXE.exe not responding

Whenever I login to Windows with MS networking, the system stops
responding and I found that MPREXE.exe is not responding when I press
Ctrl-Alt-Del

I found a solution from Internet telling me to edit the registry of the
server machine, but I don't have a server machine on the network... Any
other suggestions?

Possible you have been compromised by an old backdoor trojan:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com...r.niklaus.html

or possibly a variant of Opaserv. I've read of an Opaserv.T that uses that
file yet find no info on it at Symantec.

I did just a quick bit of research and came up with this page, which looks
to me like it offers good, solid advice, though I haven't reviewed it in
detail. I'll read it more carefully in the morning, but it should give you
some ideas to keep you occupied (and Brian's suspicions of virus are
definitely a possibility to take seriously.)

Thank you MVPs, it started to work under clean booting, will continue to
T-shoot it.
