[iTunes] iTunes virus on PCs?

[Ken Stevens]

Good morning Becca,

Your podcasts do not come from iTunes store but directly from the  
podcaster.  ITunes simply
gives you a convenient way of subscribing.  This means that something  
is cutting off your internet
connection.  Do other websites work when this happens?  If your access  
to all sites is blocked
something is shutting port 80 on your firewall or on the Windows XP  
firewall.  It might be a virus
but I doubt iTunes is at fault.
