The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

windows 2000 strange behavior / locking up

Asked by kak268 in Windows 2000 Operating System

Tags: mail, microsoft, security

I am running a Windows 2000 server with Exchange 2000.  Halfway through the day I noticed received and error message "outlook is retrieving data from the Microsoft Exchange server"......

I checked on the server and noticed several strange things.  I could not get it to shutdown through start shutdown or the control alt delete shutdown.  The screen would turn gray and then go back to normal.  I was unable to brose the internet, but able to ping both inside and outside networks by ip and domain name.  I was unable to right click on my  network places and go to properties.  I was unable to get into add remove programs.  When I went in to services i noticed that several services were stuck in the "starting mode".  I tried running iisreset and it just sat there.  I tried installing the newest virus definitions and it locked up.  I tried to scan the computer for viruses but was unable to do so.  I rebooted the computer and this time all of the services look like they started up okay except for mail security for microsoft exchange.... which is stuck on "starting".

I don't see anything in the event logs that are any different from teh mesages i normally get.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
