Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I did check that. If that was not set correctly, the task wouldn't run
at all.
This is a monitoring task that runs every 10 minutes around the clock. It
has
worked fine for up to 6 hours, then fails. Once it fails, it does not
succeed again
until I intervene and reset the password.

I've seen Microsoft Knowledge Base article 811155 which describes this event
log
error as it relates to starting service. It does not talk about scheduled
tasks failing,
however I have a feeling the cause may be the same.
