Not nescessarily.

exchange binds to rando high ports each time it is rebooted. Can you 
verify these ports are part of exchange? (Shutdown exchange and the ports 
should be gone. After a restart you should have other ports listening.)

Fixing port numbers of exchange is described on various locations.

            Don't meddle in the affairs of sysadmins,
            for they are subtle and quick to anger.
