Who is Participating?
Is it referenced as a CLSID ? Looks something like this?
{00000107-0000-0010-8000-0
You can do a search in the registry under this key
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID
for the CLSID in the error, and get the value for it...Look at the subkey InprocServer32, and you will see a path under the Default Value......
This might help us pinpoint where the problem is.....

Ok I a little confused
the spot i can find reference to this within the registry is
hkey_current_user/software
there is a string in there with a value of 1 called 888FC943-CB7D-43E7-BB64-90

Ok, this is a kinda an "out in left field' idea....Obviously there is a DCOM server thats trying to authenticate to something....Obviously using cached credentials that are outdated, or as an anonymous user(domains dont like 'anonymous' anything.....)
I would try and download ShellExView, and see if you can search on that CLSID, from the top it has a little magnifying glass that you click on and copy '888FC943-CB7D-43E7-BB64-9
ShellExView - Shell Extension Manager For Windows

Also, has there been any recent password changes by the administrator account, or yours, when this started happening? It could be that a service is confugred to run with outdated credentials.......
By the way....
"It is a windows 2000 box with exchange 2003"
Is this the server were talking about or a workstation?

And if it isnt the Services starting under bad credentials, go back to Compnent Services, and check those to see if any of those have the old credentials.....

I am windering if it would be possible for the Admin who has access to the Server (Not sure if you are the SA or not), go to the registry on the box and do a search for that GUID '888FC943-CB7D-43E7-BB64-9
