This happens when the files in ...\Trend\SProtect\SpntShare\ServerProtect becomes corrupted as a result of either a scheduled system backup on the information server or an unfinished scheduled virus pattern ActiveUpdate download.
To prevent this from happening, make sure NOT to schedule system backup with the ServerProtect's ActiveUdpate download schedule.
