Event ID 577 & 578 are filling Security Event Logs

We have quite a few windows 2000 SP4 systems running that are
continually logging event ID 577 and 578 to the Security Event log . I
understand that a workaround to this is to turn off the privilege use
auditing policy, but this is not possible due to security requirements.
 Is anyone aware of a workaround/patch to resolve this issue? It is
causing the event logs to grow to an unmanageable size.

Thanks
Tim
