📎 AI Summary:
The thread’s main topic is a security warning claiming that iTunes on Windows 7 (and related Windows versions) includes an “Autorun” feature that could allow worms/viruses to spread quickly on networked systems. The key question is essentially whether users should uninstall iTunes for protection; the original poster cites personal experience and reports from elsewhere but provides no technical proof or specific details about the vulnerability. Overall sentiment is strongly cautionary/alarmed, though the evidence presented is anecdotal.

For security purposes, please do not install iTunes on your Windows 7 PC.

Apple, for some reason has implemented a feature called "Autorun" in the iTunes program. This autorun will allow a virus to spread rapidly, especially in a networked environment.
If you are running Vista, Windows 7 and have iTunes installed, for your own protection and the security and health of your PC, please remove it.

Personal experience, other people having said issues on many forums and various articles from the web.
