What does the error code c101b000 represent?

I was getting this error code as I was attempting to install an application from the Marketplace. The application will download perfectly, but when it tries to install the application, it would continuously give me this same error code. This occurred on multiple application installation attempts, so I know it is not a problem with one specific application that I am attempting to install. I am completely lost on what in the world this might be. I need help here.

    I tried to turn the WiFi off and on, but didn't make a difference. Tried it about 11 pm EST and it started working fine. Downloaded over a dozen apps without a problem. Don't know why. Hope everyone else is experiencing the same.

    Obviously I am not alone. Had 2 updates stucked since yesterday and I had keep retrying.

    Any Microsoft rep care to give an explanation?

    I had the same problem. After several tries I disabled "roaming" and "wi-fi". After doing this the download installed perfectly. Hope this helps.
