You should not use a file system level AV on an exchange server. You
should use an AV solution designed for Exchange.
 
Exchange servers should not get infected if they are used as severs and
not personal administrative workstations.

hi all:
 
i face one time same problem with win2k :
 
1-you cant close event viewer .
2-NIC card disappear from the network properties.
3-if you make copy and try to past you cant .
 
 When you restart the server it works for some time .
 
This was caused from alot of viruses stay on your server for long time ,
i advise you to install AV (Norton Corporate Edition ) --> scan your
server -->and use the removing tool from its site .
 
take care to take backup for your system state and data.
 
 
Good  luck

        1. Make sure you have your event logs set to overwrite as
required. The
        symptoms you describe are hanging through the sheer size of the
logs,
        and the default (overwrite events older than 7 days) can become
unwieldy
        if you are logging events continuously.

        Hi Guys
        
        I hope you can help me with this one because I dont know what
else to do
        and am under serious pressure to produce results.
        
        I have a win2k svr - sp4 running exchange 5.5 also sp4. The
problem has
        three main symptoms:
        
        1) after some time of operation if I go to the event viewer,
double
        click on one of the events nothing happens. I can try this for
other
        logs e.g system
        + app log but nothing happens. When I then try and close the
event 
        + viewer I
        get a message that I cant close the program before I close all
the open
        property pages. But there are no pages open.
        
        2) We are on a dial on demand connection. When I double click
the dial
        up status icon on the task bar it doesnt respond. Also when I
double
        click the dial up short cut on my desktop it doesnt respond
either. My
        connection becomes "stale" and I have no traffic coming in or
going out.
        I cant also at this time access the network and dial up
connections
        option.
        
        3) The clients lose their network connection to the server.
        
        Eventually I have to restart and everything goes back to normal
for a
        while until this starts again. I have consultants in today who
condemned
        my DNS and WINS. They went ahead and rebuilt these but hours
after they
        left the same thing occurred. 
        
        I am now in the process of getting the latest OS patches via the
windows
        update site. I dont know if this will help however. 
        
        Can anyone assist???
        
        
        Naboth
