Task scheduler error

I've created a (few) task(s) with XP SP2 and gone to enter my
administrator's password and I recieve the error 0x80070005. After
accepting this message, I try "run" the task and nothing happens,
nothing.

Error:
An error has occured while attempting to set account information. The
specific error is: 0x80070005: access denied. You do not have
permission to perform the requested operation.

I did a search on the MS support site and couldn't find much related
to this error i thought.

Thanks.

Think it's a problem peculiar to attempting to schedule a task using the
"Administrator" account. If you log in with any other account with
administrative rights, and schedule the task using that account's
credentials, you shouldn't get the error message.
