O.P. iTunes+
Well, i am just asking if this is something to do with my pc. Whenever i click the plus icon in WLM, iTunes would run by itself. Is this part of the cript for iTunes+.

It shouldn't, but try getting the latest beta and see if it fixes your problem.  It may well be something I've fixed.  If problem continues, let me know.

Let me guess: the script is creating an ActiveX Object to interact with iTunes. And, when it isn't running, creating the object causes it to run.

It's a similar symptom to the random appearences of Windows Messenger from yesteryear.

None that I can think of as yet, as I'm not sure if scripts can search for existing instances of ActiveX Objects. I know it's possible in C/C++, so you may need to use a DLL.

Yup, that's how I do it and it should work, if it makes iTunes run randomly, please let me know when and I'll see what I can do.

Messenger used to have a bug where if you had the Now Playing option on it would restart iTunes each time you closed it. Not sure if it is fixed, but it was very annoying :P.
