That is plain and simple FUD. There are a couple of dozen Windows boxes
through the wall here which rarely get rebooted, and that include an
Exchange server. At one time, maybe five or six years ago, in the early days
on Windows NT it *might* have been true that you would need to reboot each
box once a month or so, but those days are long gone. I really don't know
what people do to their Windows boxes if they have to reboot them "multiple
times a day".
