Hi again David and thanks again for the follow up.

Actually, after reading your last post I went back and
disabled both the firewall and the anti-virus...no dice.

However, I was also thinking about your comments
regarding COM+. I was researching the error codes I
posted earlier today and, of course, one of them was
regarding this subject. But all of this stuff is really
over my head and if any suggestions in the knowledge base
didn't offer explicit, step-by-step instructions...well I
was just floundering, shall we say.

Anyway, I have taken many trips to Services in the
Administrative Tools and after your last post I noticed
that COM+ Event System status was "Started", yet COM+
System Application status was "blank". I opened its
properties and set startup type on the general tab
to "Manual", clicked start service, and everything came
back online.

Did some tweaking and I now have COM+ Event System, COM+
System Application, and even World Wide Web Publishing
all set to "Manual" start. I'll go back and change them
individually between restarts to see if they will all
resume normal behavior when startup types set
to "Automatic."

Everything is now accessible. The only quirk is that when
I click on the "Online Documentation" link on the opening
page (http://localhost)the left hand frame containing the
table of contents is missing and in its place is the ever
familiar broken link box! Don't know why so I'm hoping
that I can either get to the bottom of it or at least
there are links within the text to reach all content.

I'd still like to know what the heck happened as I hadn't
touched anything regarding ANY of the services before
things got ugly. Do you know if COM+ System application
is supposed to be running by default? If so, what would
knock it out?

We'll see what happens...

Thanks again for your prompt responses and follow up!

MMM
