****************************************************
When I delete the log, the items instantly reappear.
I have a separate instance of SQL-Server 2000 installed on the media server and don't get any error messages related to that instance.
I am running the patched version of 9.1(Rev. 4691) with AOF, Remote Server and SQL agent options.
Any idea as to what this is about and how to correct the problem?
