Since updating to the latest definitions, I've been getting this error. Popup

tells me that WD has stopped working, but Security Center says it is working.

What's the story? Thanks.

OK, are you on a corporate network using WSUS, or a home user?

If using WSUS, confirm BITS and dependent services are functioning

correctly (from Engel/Stu):

Start/Run

Type "services.msc"

Click "OK"

Please check that the following services are started:

1.Automatic Updates

2.Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)

3.Cryptographic Services

4.Remote Procedure Call (RPC)

5.System Restore Service

To verify that BITS is correctly configured :

1. Double-click 'Background Intelligent Transfer Service'

2. In the Startup type box, click Manual, and then Apply.

3. Click the 'Log On' tab, and then verify that the service is enabled

in

every hardware profile that you have listed. If the service is disabled

in

one or more hardware profiles, click the hardware profile, Enable, and

then

Apply.

4. Click the General tab and then Start.

I'm a home user running Vista Basic. What does the error message indicate?

Hi bilvihur,

0x800703EB = ERROR_CAN_NOT_COMPLETE

Probably BITS service is stopped.

Thank you. Can you tell me how I can verify that, and restart BITS if

necessary?

Update. I ran services.msc, and it says BITS status is Started.

Start/Run

Type "services.msc"

Click "OK"

Please check the following are started:

1.Automatic Updªtes

2.Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS)

3.Cryptographic Services

4.Remote Procedure Call (RPC)

5.System Restore Service

To verify that BITS is correctly configured :

1.Double-click `Background Intelligent Transfer Service.`

2.In the Startup type box, click Manual, and then Apply.

3. Click the `Log On` tab, and then verify that the service is enabled in

every hardware profile that you have listed.

If the service is disabled in one or more hardware profiles, click the

hardware profile, Enable, and then Apply.

4. Click the General tab and then Start.

If BITS starts successfully, visit the Windows Update Web site or the

Microsoft Update Web site to see if you can obtain updates. If it works OK,

change (2.) to automªtic.

If you still receive the same errors, verify that you have correctly

performed steps 1 through 5.

I rechecked services.msc, and everything appeared 'started' and functioning.

I have not gotten the error in 2 days, so don't know what might have changed.

How's your Security Center working now, is it still reporting

accurately? Occasionally the Security Center gets out out of touch

with reality, usually after changing out security programs, although on

Vista it's an easy check and then an easy fix if it's not working

correctly. Keep this KB in your toolkit if you see any problems being

reported by security center on Vista from either your installed

Anti-spyware or Anti-virus:

Everything looks to be working correctly now. No more Defender errors, and

Security Center is reporting accurately. Thanks.
