Kirsten,
I had the exact same issue down to the letter. After making the change to
the root.asp, the password expiration message went away with no lasting side
"affects."
We were not prompted to change the password for IUSR_computername 15 days
later as the Technet blurb implied.

Subject: OWA password error after NT post-SP6a SRP
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.
