Milo,
Also have him check what MFAC is installed and check for locks around
scoped variables. The two of these can give you the type of error you
are seeing (particularly the locks). We got hit by this one week before
last at a client site. Make sure all application, session and server
variables are properly locked. There are a couple of knowledge base
articles dealing with this issue.

Billy. I am not sure exactly what is happening, but Gene thinks
it is CF as
that is what is using up all the resources on the machine. It
just keeps
using more resources until it locks up the machine and it won't
recover.
Could I have Gene contact you off list to discuss the
particulars? If so,
let me know and I will give him your address.
Thanks,
Milo
