Dave I think you discovered the trick to my problem! I ran the command to clear bitadmin and saved the 2 dat files that they created. I have had an internet connection for 47 minutes now (after I ran the command) with BITS started and on manual. NO MORE BITS temp files as of yet (prior to this I would have had about 150 of them in that amount of time). I reran bitsadmin.exe and below is the new log file it created:

BITSADMIN version 2.0 [ 6.6.2600.2180 ]
BITS administration utility.
(C) Copyright 2000-2004 Microsoft Corp.

Listed 0 job(s).

134KB a far cry from over 6MB yesterday when I ran it and could not post due to its size.

I will submit the 2 dat files you requested but they are about 6MB a piece.

I will monitor for a few days and let you know. What do you think I should run to make sure this machine is really, really clean?

I have seen a lot of different forums, etc. where the user is asking about BITS.tmp files and the user never received a good answer. Just advice to run this program or that but no ending with it resolved. Thanks for sticking with it...seems like you are now the BITS.tmp file expert!! The Windows XP Support Tools really helped along with bitsadmin.exe.

Please give me your advice on what to run to make sure this machine is clean again.

APPRECIATE it a lot.

Just an update............

Over one hour and 15 minutes with no BITS tmp files. Also AVG is not having to block any inbound attempts from the IP in Moscow. I tried to submit the 2 dat files to you Dave and with each one being 6MB it exceeded the 3MB limit. Just let me know what you would like me to do.

Thanks,

Ric

Good to hear problem is solved. Try zipping one....see how much it compresses. I think my email will handle 10MB.

How about running a Kaspersky scan just for good measure. Instructions here.
