Thanks Ken... Able to get on the system, it appears that the web services just hang... Tried restarting all the web services, but, only recourse is to reboot the system in-order to get everything back running again. I will look at updating all the services with the latest service pack (SP4 for Ex. and latest for IE) to see it it helps. ALso, nothing shows up in the Event Log to give any indication of why the problem occurs.. Bosses are tired of hearing that we have to reboot in-order to correct the situation... They just can't take a joke...

I wish that I had some words of wisdom to impart. I had the same thing running here with the exception that my Exchange was at sp4. We had it on a server that also hosted our web page as well. As you said everyday or so it would just hang. I would go to the server and the screen saver was just frozen. I even tried to login and wait for it to take effect thinking that it may just be slow. No dice. I would have to hit the power and bring it back up. It would run again for from 5 minutes to 13 days. Again, no rhyme or reason as far as I could tell. The box sat outside the firewall and communicated via Cisco's VPN client. I have since removed it from that server and brought it up on a new server and had no problems. I have no idea what caused the old one to lock up or why this one is working and the other one did not. The Internet is still being served from the old one and has not locked up as far as I know since I took OWA off of it. I see no change in the event logs from then to now.
