On this page

This is a routine event logged at system startup and can be regarded as noise.

To learn more about per-user selective auditing see See Roger Grimes' article at www.windowsitpro.com for an excellent introduction to per user selective auditing.  But don't get your hopes up; it isn't a very practical feature; basically it's just there for Common Criteria compliance.
