Hotfix for the Event ID 7076, 6398, and 6482 recurring errors
"Microsoft has now found the root cause of this problem to be the IIS ADSI provider. Essentially, if you have a process with more than one thread and two threads access IIS 6.0 at the same time, then this issue occurs.  This problem is likely to occur for the SharePoint Timer service (OWSTimer.exe) in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. When this occurs, you may find that:
  • In SharePoint Server 2007, tasks that are scheduled do not run.
  • When you try to manage IIS 6.0 by using Server Manager, you receive a blank page, or you receive the following error message: "the path specified cannot be used at this time".
The Event ID's 7076, 6398 and 6482 and memory error messages described above will also be recorded in the Application Event Logs. Microsoft now has a KB article describing this problem http://support.microsoft.com/?id=946517 along with details of the fix and how to obtain it. This fix is not a SharePoint fix so you should be able to install the fix regardless of what Service Pack level you are running."

Sharepoint superstar Tom Dietz pointed out a helpful hotfix if your Sharepoint/WSS Timer Service keeps throwing errors in the event log. Even though it might seem like bad memory in the server, it is most likely related to KB 946517. Symptoms include

Is it normal that MS support is trying to charge 100$ to download the fix?

no it is not, unless you do not have MS support. We are MS gold partners and we really have to pay nothing now for support...

but MS is probably charging the normal person a shite load!
