Could you re-run windows repair but this time just select windows updates that should re-register the file for us... Also could you post the log for that section

Same result.  Windows update fails, and I don't see BITS listed as a service.  Log attached.

Could you set the bits service by going start > All programs > Accessories
Right click command prompt
Select run as administrator

Type in the following and press enter:

sc create BITS binpath= "c:\windows\system32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs" start= delayed-auto

That should create the BITS service

I have another one here with the same problem http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=103020.new#new
Could you follow the instructions that I gave hin in the last post

Okay - sorry, I do have BITS installed.  Previously it was just called BITS, now the service has the name spelled out and I missed it.  It fails to start with error 193: 0xc1

The dependencies are the same as yours, and both say their status is started.

TA a bit more data to check out

Hopefully when I find a resolution to this it will be a quick (ish) fix for any one else that has it

Start --> Run --> regsvr32 qmgr.dll

Result...

The module "qmgr.dll was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer as not found.  Make sure that qmgr.dll is valid DLL or OCX file and then try again.

OK here is a known good copy of qmgr

Download and place in the windows system32 folder.. Allow to overwrite
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/73555776/qmgr.dll

Then try regsrv32 on that file again

I downloaded the file with no problem, but I got the same result as above when I tried to register it.   
The module "qmgr.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllRegisterServer as not found.  Make sure that "qmgr.dll" is valid DLL or OCX file and then try again.

I'm on Win 7, 64 bit.  Is this the correct dll for me?

Yes it was from my win 7 64bit

A slightly modified registry file that may work

Download from the link by right clicking and selecting "Save Target As " to the desktop
Right click and select merge
then reboot
