Recently our daily "Server Performance Report" emailed by Windows Small Business Server 2003 started reporting one "Auto-started Services Not Running". The service was "Performance Logs and Alerts". The only info I could find online was the service runs intermittently and the error could safely be ignored. Not wanting to see this alert everyday, I changed the "Startup Type" of the service from "Automatic" to "Manual". The error is now gone and the service still seems to work correctly, as I am still receiving performance stats in the "Server Performance Report".
