iTunes Help Appreciated.

Hi all, pretty new to this. Just thought i'd see if any of you guys would be able to help me with an itunes problem i'm having since i downloaded the new version (8.0) on Vista.

What happens is when i connect to the store my screen stuffs up and everything slows down and iTunes ends up closing itself :confused

This is what it looks like;

It only happens when i connect to the store, its very frustrating because i can't download a thing and itunes closes every time.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Joel.
