Oooops........sorry 'bout that.......I usually leave instructions to
copy/paste the entire URL into a browser window, or leave a link for a
TinyURL if I think that the URL will wrap due to its length.
Here is the TinyURL:

thanks but it didn't work. Must be a more serious problem with BITS. I cn't
seem to get it started even after the dll fix attempt. I get error 2147024891
when starting BITS and the dll thing didn't work. I'll keep seearching

Try the following (provided by Narayana Mahankali [MSFT] in an October 2004
thread regarding the same error codes):

Open a command prompt window, and key in (or copy/paste):
rd /q /s "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Network\Downloader"
hit ENTER

Now key in:
net start BITS
and hit ENTER

Thank you, I applied this fix and it worked fine. Due to my language profile
(spanish) I change the command to
rd /q /s "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Datos de programa\Microsoft\Network\Downloader"

Patti,

I ve been having this problem too and tried all the above. I tried the
comand prompt fix but the file cannot be found. I went and looked in that
"Network" folder but all that is in it is titled "Connections" no
"Downloader." Any ideas for this problem. Thanks in advance.
