It seems to me that I have basically the same problem, except that with me the Exchange protocols crash like every other day.

I get event 7031 on all of my Exchange protocols in the System log.
According to MS Knowledgebase article Q304166, theIIS metabase is corrupt and you'll have to de-install IIS, remove the metabase.bin file, re-install IIS and install Exchange with the Reinstall-option.

For detailed info see: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q304166

Hmm, I've been looking thru the newsgroups with Google, and it seems that there's tons of people experiencing the same symptoms, but coming up with lots of different causes (and solutions).
Some causes I read: Hacks, Virusscanner problems, Code Red virus, DoS attacs, etc.
