Anyway, the Ed's method is the easiest.... Unpluging the box takes 2 seconds.

The intention is that, if we get a virus outbreak and don't want it spreading, we can run a batch file to disable access to all our Exchange 5.5 servers immediately, leaving us free to deal with the virus. A second batch file would then re-enable user access to Exchange. Any ideas?
