Depends? ;)

I'm wondering if this was significant?

>> WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 1077 (0x435)

See this?

Notice that there is an exit code for this service,
even though it has not yet been run.
Entering the Windows NT command "net helpmsg 1077"
at the command line returns the following text information
for error 1077:
No attempts to start the service have been made since the last boot.
</quote>

(MSN search for
1077 exit code site:microsoft.com
)

E.g. if Gil thought that an attempt had been made to start BITS
this would contradict that idea.
