Seriously, if you have to ask, don't even attempt it. In my case the server had two Groupshield exchange items as seen from exchange admin. It was largely a cosmetic error. I deleted the original Groupshield directories and reinstalled Groupshield 4.5, then ran exchange admin in raw mode to delete the old entry. Server has working fine ever since.
