Ok, please be patient since I am old. I installed itunes previously with my old ipod. Now I just purchased ipod shuffle. I had to upgrade itunes to 7.1 and I tried but then a message popped up saying my quicktime.cab was corrupt and couldnt upgrade. Does this makes sense to anyone? Now what do I do? Thanks! Please help me.

addition info
Also I tried to update my quicktime and this is what I get:
This file was blocked because it does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher.
So I take it that I cant update my quicktime which inturn I cannot update my itunes. How do I get past this?
Thanks! Hope someone comes in here quick!

Oh i know there were some problems with itunes and vista, with the quicktime downloads. I'll read into it a bit if I can

Ok well I have a question. Did you use quicktime to play videos or downloads etc, there have been bad security issues with quicktime recently, Making it very difficult for people to upgrade their versions of itunes/quicktime.

Try uninstalling QuickTime and iTunes, then completely redownloading and reinstalling them. That should (hopefully) do the trick.

if you uninstalled and reinstalled I think that results to you may have some kind of virus. Did you do any scans yet? with and without itunes installed?

Actually, it seems that there is some firewall/antivirus that keeps stuff without a valid digital signature from downloading because it is a potential security risk. Do you have the Windows XP firewall or antivirus enabled?

What antivirus and firewall are you using?
Windows xp firewall.
Here is a message I am getting which is stopping me to go any further:
The cabinet file 'QuickTime.cab' required for this installation is corrupt and cannot be used. This could indicate a network error, an error reading from cd-rom or a problem with this package.
I turned off my firewall to except quicktime and still nothing. Grrrrrrrr.

where are you downloading it from?
Are you using Internet Explorer? If so, is ActiveX enabled?
