When account lockouts occur it is usually a result of an app sending a bad
password when attempting to authenticate the user. There are several ways
to go about troubleshooting this. Take a look at the following resources

what kind of app may be causing that, i just have exchange
2000 server and symantec antivirus installed.
 
it's more to do with applications running on the client machine, not on the
server.
