      Java Update feature has resumable download facility using BITS on Win2000SP3
      and WindowXP.

      When JWSSE tested this feature we found that BITS did not start always.

      1. Install 1.4.2 on Win2000/XP system
      2. Point map.xml to description.XML pointing to large file (so that we have
         noticeable download time to remove the ethernet cable through the download.
         J2SDK bundles might be just sufficient).
      3. Notice that Local Area network connection lost message from OS
      4. Re-connect the ethernet cable and notice that resumable download does not
         start reliably and always.
      5. This results in incomplete installer being downloaded and setup fails to
         launch itself.

      6. This behaviour is primarily visible when connection loss is longer.

      Expected behaviour.

      Resumable download should able to download the binary completely and reliably
      whenever there is a connection loss.
