Exchange 5.5 SP4 running OWA
Windows NT SP6a with SRP

After I installed the post-SP6a SRP on our Exchange servers yesterday, my
users started getting the following pop-up when logging in to OWA:

"Your current password is about to expire in 0 days.  To change your
password, go to the Options page after you login."  

Aside from this confusing message, OWA works as normal.  

The following MS KB article seemed to describe the problem:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q262/9/02.asp

The first reasonable-sounding suggestion was to change the password for the
IUSR_computername account and reset it where needed.  I did that, but it had
no effect.  I also tried creating a new account with no luck.  Finally, I
went ahead and modified the root.asp file as this article describes, and
that fixed the problem (wahoo!).  

However, there's a blurb at the end of this article that seems to imply that
I will be asked to change the password for IUSR_computername in 15 days.
This doesn't make any sense to me, as that user is set so that the password
never expires.

Has anyone dealt with this problem?  Your insights would be much
appreciated.
