Installed Windows SUS - Now I can't start FTP through IIS?

Hi all,

This afternoon I installed the Windows SUS Automatic update on my Windows 2000 server. While I was clicking through it mentioned an option about enabling increased security, which i said "Yes" to. Now when I enter IIS I noticed all my FTP sites are "Stopped". When I try and restart them I get the follow error "the service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion"?

Just to confirm this happened on a Windows 2000 Server, running SP4 after I installed Windows SUS SP1. Any suggestions as to how i can get my ftp back up and working?

Any before anyone directs me here, i've already gone through and checked the following recommendations from Microsoft:

When you install SUS on an IIS 5 server, it runs IIS Lockdown tool. It disables the ftp, smtp service and webdav and anything else unnecessary. Go into the services control panel and switch on the ftp publishing service if you need it.
 
Thanks, I actually managed to fix it by un-installing the ftp componment of IIS through Add/Remove windows componments. Then re-installing ftp.

Thanks for the recommendation.
