I was reading a Technet articles that the store may be corrupt (Q272570). Even though the criteria listed doesn't all match us, I was wondering if there could still be corruption. Since we don't work any 2nd or 3rd shifts here, I didn't think too much would be missed from 11:00pm to 2:00 if the information store was stopped. It didn't seem like this would be too bad to try to troubleshoot, but I could be wrong. I just don't know.
