For that matter, so is Microsoft Windows 2000.

Definitely.

Sumeet, note that your exception stack trace almost certainly has
nothing to do with their Tomcat instance appearing to freeze: something
else is happening to your server.

My wild guess with virtually no information is that you have a servlet
that leaks database connections when an error such as the above occurs,
and your server is waiting forever for a database connection from a pool.

Please post your conf/server.xml file (taking care to remove any
sensitive information such as usernames and passwords) and other
relevant files along with your thread dump so we can take a look.

Any chance of upgrading to a supported version of Tomcat? Tomcat 5.5 is
nearly a drop-in replacement for Tomcat 5.0, and Tomcat 6.0 isn't much
worse as an upgrade target.
