Background Intelligent Transfer Service on SSL and Certificate

When I try to upload a file using BITS to a site which requires a
certificate
I encounter the error message "A certificate is required..." (Duh).
My user has a valid installed certificate, and using IE I can browse
sites requireing a certificate.
Can I somehow use this certificate for BITS sessions, or any other
certificate for that matter ?

BITS newsgroup is microsoft.public.windows.backgroundtransfer

Hi Jonathan,
Sorry. BITS doesnt support authentication using certificates.
