Subject: OWA Crashing...know cause!!!


Exchange 5.5 SP4

I finally figured out what is causing our IIS to stop on our OWA servers.  I
had a user that received a message that was infected with the
"WORM_BADTRANS.B" virus (attachment "HAMSTER.DOC.pif").  ScanMail caught the
virus and deleted the attachment.

Now if the user gets into OWA and tries to open the message...it kills IIS
everytime.  I put the message in my mailbox and I also duplicated the
problem.  

Back to Microsoft for a fix!!!
