How do I do that?

Well, for starters it has gone and added all of the music in my iTunes
library to Squeezecenter.  That's really annoying, since my iTunes
library is a downsampled copy of my main library, so I now have two
copies of everything listed in Squeezecenter.  That plus the fact that
during the initial scan of my library, it first reported scanning all
the music files I told it to, and then reported scanning through
iTunes, first the songs, then the playlists.

A recommendation to use Firefox, Opera or Safari would be good, because
the initial impression created by using Squeezecenter through IE is not
a good one.  I know dealing with tuning for multiple browsers is a huge
pain in the butt, and that the tools for development in FF are great (as
opposed to the almost-nonexistant tools for IE).  I especially pity you
for having to deal with IE 6 and really, anyone still using that needs
some help.  But every other interactive site relying heavily on
Javascript manages to get their stuff running acceptably on IE 7. 
Squeezecenter shouldn't be an exception.

Well, I just searched every non-audio file in my music folder, and not
one refers to "My Music" (or anything else that isn't in my music
folder).

We'll just have to disagree on where responsibility lies for this.  But
one of these days, someone is going to come up on this forum and say
that they switched from running SC as an app to running it as a service
...

Thanks for your help.
