SBS 2003 licenses suddenly removed

We are running SBS 2003 and now had this problem happen twice.  I get a call from a user saying they can connect to the server via Outlook.  When I check the License area all of are SBS 2003 Cals are gone.  I reneter each license key and it fixes the problem.  My concern is what is causing the licenses to be deleted.  Any help would be great

Could you please check your Event Viewer and report back with anything out of the ordinary in relation to the licenses?

It is full of errors, warnings, and information.  Not sure what to be looking for?
I'm not hugely sure where the licenses events are placed. Probably within the System section of Event Viewer. Have a look for anything to do with licensing. If you have alot of errors in there, can you give us a few of the IDs so we can help sort your system out a bit?
I had several 201's.  Before those errors was a 221.  Before the 221 I had these error codes:
1205
1005
1202
439
0
215
482

These would come multiple times.  Sorry I really do not know what these mean.

By the way... your event log should NEVER be "full of errors"  you need to follow those up and solve them.
