I ran into this problem yesterday morning, and the FIX is as follows:

STEP 1
From START, select RUN enter REGEDIT.EXE

Close all to the top level MY COMPUTER

Hit CTRL and F

TYPE IN: ACEEventLog

Hit FIND NEXT

Delete ACEEventLog Finding

Hit: F3

Repeat if necessary (there were 2 (two) entries in my XP 64

When no more entries are found close REGEDIT.

STEP 2
Open C:\Windows\Systems32\Config

Delete ACCE ventLog.evt

Empty Recycle Bin

Tada!! ACEEventLog is history.

STEP 3 - OPTIONAL
From Desktop select MY COMPUTER

Right click LOCAL DISK C:

Select PROPERTIES

Select TOOLS

Select CHECK DISK OPERATIONS – ONLY “AUTOMATICALLY FIX FILE SYSTEM ERRORS”

Hit START

You will get a message that the system needs exclusive use and do you want to do it on the next restart – Select YES, then OKAY.

Close window and restart – system will do a CHKDSK and correct any errors (i.e. changes made) – I do this to keep the registry clean and matching. When it completes and restarts take a look at the number of errors in your Event Viewer – Applications – WINLOGON, do not be surprised by the number.
