Whilst you're waiting for a response, you might wish to try:

Register the Qmgr.dll and Qmgrprxy.dll BITS files. To do this, follow these steps:
1. Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 qmgr.dll in the Open box, and then click OK.
2. Click OK.
3. Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 qmgrprxy.dll in the Open box, and then click
OK.
4. Click OK.
