In this situation I am thinking of three or four possibilities:

1. the iusr password became corrupt. it can be reset in the user manager
console and then reset in the iis console. do iisreset for good measure.

2. the iusr account needs "access this computer from network" and "log on
locally" policies in the local security policy settings or in the domain
policy settings. While there also perhaps make sure that Iusr is not
listed in the "Deny log on locally" category (unlikely)

3. active directory could have some policies that override local security
polices and restrict iusr

4. the "crashonaudtifail" factor is a definite possibility. there are a
few articles in the kb on this and the same regkey and same principles
affect IIS versions 1-6 it seems. check this regkey:
HKLM\system\currentcontrolset\control\ls
a
Look for crashonauditfail. If its value is "2" then change it to zero and
reboot.
