After pushing out clients for the MS Application Compatibility Toolkit on our domain via GPO, UACCEEventLog 301 occurs a few times per second in the event log. Several Thousand per hour.

One test i need to do is logon with Administrator to see if these events go away while Admin, but of course that is not a fix.

This is only part of the event log entry, but is the most readable and clearly indicates yet another problem with Antivirus software. But still no fix.

Originally, i posted this In Words and Bytes, but then edited it to make it much easier to read. LocalMachine\Users do have Read Access to this key. For a test, i added "Domain Users" but there are many more events for other parts of the registry and for Administrators.
