Is this a virus

[HoundofCulaine]

We've had 7 servers all go blue screen of death on us within 10 mins of each other.

The blue screen error message says 'MUST SUCCEED POOL EMPTY'

We've seen that this is a MS message, must admit it's the first time I've seen this message and it did look a little suspect, and then to see another 6 machines go down with it is worrying.

From the MS Knowledgebase it seems to be a problem with a leaky app trying to connect to ports that don't exist. And as we haven't added any new software to the machines that's why we're worried about viruses.

Checked Sophos and McAfee websites but have found nothing.

We've got our network guy using a sniffer to capture the data coming in and out of the machines.

Anybody have any ideas?

Here's the only MS article I could find on the subject:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=291591.

As the original post indicates, it doesn't appear to be virus related.

I'd adjust the size of my page file and see what that does for you.

You could try running AVG for Windows servers and see if it catches anything. It works great for my Windows 2003 Server.
