Bite me. If I told you that you should run eseutil on your databases just because "I" think your database is corrupt, without any reasoning why I thought it was corrupt, would you? I certainly won't.
John responded to my response with what seemed to be a well though out answer. You, however, seem to have no clue.

I understood that you had not scanned the Exchange files with a file based AV product. However, if you have a product that runs for a long time, then suddenly stops working (locking up the server, etc) then the server starts working again when you take the product off, you should look at the points of intersection as to where a problem may have developed. In this case, your message databases.
-1018 errors don't have to be recorded to have a problem inside the database.

I don't have a corrupted database. Why would you or what leads you to make that assumption? I have no 1018 errors, I have no event logs of any kind that point to any database errors. The problem has not re-occurred since removing the AV software. Like I said before, I did not have the file-level AV scanning the databases.
If you are going to make a claim such as I should run maintenance, back it up with the reasons why. Not just saying you think I have database corruption. Tell me why you think I have corruption.

Ben:
Sounds like you may have a corrupted database. Have you thought about running maintenance on the server?

We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product for Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up the server a couple of times. I can't prove it was Symantec, but I removed all AV off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since. And yes, I'm not stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr directories with file-based scanners. Now, we are only running 2. SAV for SMTP Gateways, and Desktop.

I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email systems. My current assignment has me at a place where they are comfortable with desktop and a set of SMTP servers doing virus and spam. Desktop is Symantec and Trend on the SMTP servers. My gut feeling is to also protect the IS stores too. How many have 3 levels.
