The first public release of the BITS Manager installer program. The BITS Manager utility is a small GUI program that demonstrates the Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) service in Windows. BITS is used by many programs to download additional content and updates with a "set and forget" API: the developer can ask to download from a URL into a file, and BITS will attempt to download the file while respecting the user's bandwidth, their current power abilities, and the network cost.
