Event ID 9661 9095 9096 Repeating on Exch2k3/Win2k3
Starting at around 12:30AM on 6/21 a server I manage started spitting out these event id's at a high rate. Typically between 1 and 3 9661's is followed by a 9095 and then a 9096. This repeats every 20 to 40 seconds or so and goes on for hours then stops without warning. It then starts up again at some random future time. If it occurs during business hours there is a noticeable performance hit.Strangely, this started happening just BEFORE I applied June updates to this system and rebooted it at 8:00PM on 6/21. I didn't notice the issue until complaints came in on 6/22. In my search for a solution, I saw that WMI permissions could possible have been at issue, but a quick check reveals no WMI permissions problems. It seems that others have experienced this but I have not found any solution thus far.Any insights that can be offered are most appreciated. Below are the events referenced above.Event Type:InformationEvent Source:MSExchangeISEvent Category:General Event ID:9661Date:7/1/2009Time:7:39:45 AMUser:N/AComputer:POSTMANDescription:The Unsolicited Commercial Email default filter level has been updated.
