After having booted in safe mode, I noticed these entries in system events viewer:
DCOM got error “This service cannot be started in safe mode"attempting to start the service EventSystem with arguments” in order to run the server. {1BE1F766-5536-11D1-B726-00C04FB926AF}
DCOM got error “This service cannot be started in safe mode"attempting to start the service netman with arguments” in order to run the server. {BA126AE5-2166-11D1-B1D0-00805FC1270E}
I’m aware that “netman” has to do with managing network connections, and in safe mode network is disabled. But the term “server” throws me off; does it literally mean it is trying to run a server or establish connection to one? I’m running XP Pro SP3, and my system shouldn’t be connecting to any servers.
Could someone shed some light on this?
