537 errors due to manual services being started

I am running a Windows 2000 domain with Windows 2003 servers which are locked
down for security compliance (DCOM changes are involved). Only when services
that are always set to Manual except when needed, like Liveupdate from
Symantec or WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-discovery, 537 events are logged to the
event log. I have pasted an example below. Does anyone know why these are
occurring?
