perflib errors everywhere

[David Peck]

I am getting these errors in my application log every
second or two:

The Open Procedure for service ".NETFramework" in
DLL "C:\WINNT\system32\mscoree.dll" failed. Performance
data for this service will not be available. Status code
returned is data DWORD 0.

The Open Procedure for service ".NETFramework" in
DLL "C:\WINNT\system32\mscoree.dll" failed. Performance
data for this service will not be available. Status code
returned is data DWORD 0.

I have found a few things on it like:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;299059"
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;174690
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;186713

From the erroring files it seems like it is a .Net error
and so I did wonder if it might be to do with the
permissions. ASP.Net being a member of my domain and
perhaps perflib being a member of the local machine (also
domain controller).

I have reinstalled the .net framework but this did not fix
the problem. I don't really want to try the work around
suggested in the first link as the error occurs so often
it must be affecting performance.

Any clues?
