iTunes store error 8008???

I ordered a Season Pass for Grey's Anatomy Season 2, and delayed downloading several episodes. I worked my way through the list slowly, and downloaded all except three earlier today. There are now three left in the "Downloads" queue, and I can't get them to work.

It says that the files are corrupted, and then gives me iTunes err = 8008. I searched, but couldn't find anything.

Please tell me someone has come across this before!

Thanks so much,
Evangeline

Ok, this is how I fixed it. No one at apple told me to do this but it worked.

First I found my Itunes folder on my computer. Within your itunes folder there is a folder named DOWNLOADS. In this folder Itunes stores temporary files of your downloads in progress. Double click on this folder and you should see the names of the files/programs that keep coming up error -8008. They will be folders with a .tmp extension.

Just delete them!!! I know this is scary but it works. Once you delete them go back to your itunes click on store and check for purchases and the downloads will resume.
