Sophos Anti-Virus service fails to start

We have several clients machines that stopped displaying the Sophos shield in the system tray.  When I look at the services I notice that the Sophos Anti-Virus service is not running, so I right click on it and attempt to start it.  I get an error message

"WIndows could not start the Sophos Anti-Virus service on Local COmputer.  For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vender, and refer to the specific error code -2147467259."  When I look at the event log it is flooded with EVENT ID 0's comining from Sourrce Sophos AntiVirus Description: Exception caught in CInfrastructureModule::PreMessageLoop.

I also see Event ID 1000

What do I need to do so that the Sophos Anti-Virus will start running again?
