Disconnect the NNTP Service. It's job is to provide newsgroup abilities (i.e. create your own in-house newsgroups).

As per contributor (C.P.): This occurs when NNTP is installed and running, but not actively performing any function - though it's merely not configured, the server seems to think there might be a problem. If you're not actually using this service atpresent, you might disable it or uninstall it to prevent all those system log entries.". A.G. comments: NNTP is required during Exchange 2000 setup or uinstall. I recommend disabling the service and not uninstalling it.
