Exchange Lockup Forcing Reboot

I am constantly having to reboot my exchange server every few hours.  I have recurring errors in the logs for the Master browser (8021 & 8003) and MSExchangeDSAccess (2102 & 2103).  I have scoured the MS knowledge base and havent solved the problem yet.  I am running IIS on the same server, could that cause problems.  Additionally, this is the BDC, I did not set up this network, but I plan to demote it soon.

I have 5 sites exposed to the world.  Do I really not need the browser service?  I read the white paper for 2k browser services and it made it sound pretty important.  8^)   I have one desktop running 98, one 95, and one NT for testing purposes.  Other than that they're all XP and 2k.
 By the way, thanks for the quick reply......

Ok, I stopped the browser service and I'm not getting the Master Browser errors anymore.  So I'm half way there.  Exchange is still crashing with the MSExchangeDSAccess errors (2102 & 2103).  It always happens within an hour of someone connecting via POP, could this be related?
CodeRed-Virus caused this behavior on machines which have no current SP applied.
I do not remember if SP1 fixed the problem, SP2 certainly did.
Thats not a bad thought, but I'm on SP3 running Symantec Corporate AV that gets virus defs updated nightly....
Thanks, glad I could help.  I am running NAV corporate as well.  How ofetn do you have scans scheduled?

Did you get this answered yet?
It magically stopped happening  8^)  I think it was related to some security settings that I set.  A few of the servcies were not able to start becasue of logon failures.

We have the realtime scan always going and we scan everything nightly and check for new virus def's nightly.

Thanks for the help
Glad I could..
