Had similiar issue - after IIS has been restarted, DefaultAppPool was stopped.

In application event logs found an error:

Windows cannot log you on because your profile cannot be loaded. Check that you are connected to the network, or that your network is functioning correctly. If this problem persists, contact your network administrator.
DETAIL - Access is denied.

Fixed by setting in DefaultAppPool Advanced Settings option Load User Profile to False.

Hope it could be usefull.
