I actually figured this error out myself.

I installed exchange 2010 on an existing 2007 organization

the problem was, I needed to add the existing 2007 server to the group 'exchange trusted subsystems' and the administrative account (that is used to log onto the exchange 2007 serveR) to the exchange trusted subsystem as well.

This solved all the issues related to the virtual directory that I was experiancing.

also:

I had to add the exchange trusted subsystem into the local administrators group on the exchange 2007 server (..)
