Just great, now Windows Update won't work?!

It says that the BITS service won't start because a dependency services or group failed to start. When I tried to start those, it'd run, but then it stop right away:

[Background Intelligent Transfer Service]

• COM+ Event System (started, but then stopped)
  • Remote Procedure Call (RPC)
  • DCOM Server Process Launcher
  • RPC Endpoint Mapper

Log Name: Application
Source: Microsoft-Windows-EventSystem

Event ID: 4609
Task Category: Event Service
Level: Warning
Keywords: Classic

Description:
The COM+ Event System detected a bad return code during its internal processing. HRESULT was 80070002 from line 200 of d:\w7rtm\com\complus\src\events\tier2\service.cpp. This warning may be expected if the computer is low on resources. If the computer is not low on resources, and these warnings persist, it may indicate a problem in the COM+ Event System.

Yeah, about that:

First, I got the CCEnhancer rules taken out of CCleaner, and that should allow some healing to take place. Then after searching around a bit, I had to do a bit of registry hacking to get the COM+ Event System to run.

Now to Windows Update. It keeps asking me to install the Bing Bar, and Bing Desktop as optional updates, but I don't want those. The updates did hang up when it got to "Create a Restore Point", because obviously Volume Shadow Copy still doesn't work, but after leaving it alone for a moment it started installing them anyway.
