I am new to this service and a solution to launching iTunes on Vista may
have already been posted, but I need help! I have tried a number of
suggestions from the Internet, but I still cannot launch iTunes. It seems to
install okay, but when I attempt to launch it, I get the messages:
Uninstall iTunes and restart...download the newest version and try
installing it again, making sure you do it as admin. Try also running
itunes as admin, right clicking the itunes launcher will give you the option
to launch as admin.

I don't have Vista, but it sounds like an overly aggressive UAC
thinking that iTunes is a virus or something. Like Mike said, try
running as Admin (if you haven't already). Maybe check your UAC
settings.
No, a DEP (Data Execution Prevention) error indicates that something is

Build 7000
I understand that there are other builds after that, but I'm not sure
how/where to get them. You'd think it would get updated as they came
out. Guess not.

You can get em on torrent sites...and before anyone cries foul, MS is going
to release a public beta before going GM so using these released torrents is
hardly a problem. 7077 I believe is the latest.

Its CompUSA in name only. These will be retail locations of TigerDirect.

Never, never update...clean install. Anyone downloading this and trying to

Make sure you update.

Don't feel too bad. I too have had nothing but trouble with iTunes,
mostly on XP machines. Fortunately, it's not like the program is
actually _needed_ for anything, so these days I just recommend against
using it at all.
