I downloaded it last night and everything is running smoothly.

I don't have any firewalls or virus scanners, and I am using XP.

Yeah I have a problem with Windows Media Player. No matter what I do it never works. It always says it failed to load. (

everytime i have installed iTunes on my computer, i have had problems with it and SP2. I've had to reinstall SP2 about 15 times to get a new update so i havent downloaded any updates the past few months, new errors everytime i have no clue why.

thats what you get for putting a mac app on a windowz box. itunes 5 works great on my mac and sp2.

You're not protected from virus's being behind 10 firewalls, let alone just two. Try the free one from www.grisoft.com - it's what I use on 3 of 4 computers.

iTunes 5 doesn't even let you disable ITMS icons anymore. Those little arrows are everywhere making everything look too busy!

Stay with iTunes 4 if you disable ITMS.

lol I was talking about hacking. Two [i4bbde5ab47]routers[/i4bbde5ab47] is enough to avoid hacking problems.

As for viruses, I know what I download and surf. I am perfectly comfortable without. D
