Shekhar,
Definately sounds like you have had some form of rogue process that
has used up the memory and swap on the system. The only way we have
been able to recover from it (not on an SP2) when we've hit it is to
power cycle the system affected, shutdown will probably not work as
it will try and fork processes.
Regards
Tim
