"General access denied error" on all sites

I am getting the "General access denied error" in the
event log when trying to access any site on my localhost.
The browser displays HTTP:500 error.
I also get it with the IISAdmin & IISHelp sites.
The server is running with no errors other than the
warning "General access denied error" when trying to
access anything.

Rg
