Try this
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Performance and Maintenance, and then click Administrative Tools.
3. Double-click Services, click the Task Scheduler service, and then click Restart the service. Wait for the Service Control progress indicator to close.
4. Close the Services window.
P.S. Are you using the AT command, or using Windows Task scheduler? If using the AT command, try using Windows Task scheduler instead. Wish I knew more.
This is a fix for the problem with SP2 but you can only use it if you have XP Pro
To work around this problem, add the "Access this computer from the network" permission to the user account that will run the scheduled task. To do this for the local computer policy, follow these steps:
1.Click Start, click Run, type Gpedit.msc, and then click OK.
2.Expand the following items in the Local Computer Policy list:
Computer Configuration
Windows Settings
Security Settings
Local Policies
3.Click User Rights Assignment.
4.Double-click Access this computer from the network, click Add User or Group, click Browse, and then add the user name or the group name that you want.
5.Click OK two times.
6.Click File, and then click Exit to quit the Group Policy editor.
I've had this computer for almost 2 years, it worked properly at one time. It's very frustrating. I like my computer scanned daily, but I don't always think or want to do it, weeks will go by before I think to do it......uhg!!!......lol
