Itunes stops running

Question

I am running OS X 10.8.2 on my computer.  I play itunes from my computer when I am not using it.  It now stops playing when the computer goes back to the login in screen.  I assume it goes to the login in screen due to my power saver settings.  It used to work even when the login screen came up.  Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks

Try and use Microsoft's Cleanup Utility and then reinstall Quicktime/iTunes:

Make sure it's a new and fresh download from:

See if any of these help:

If not mentioned in the articles, make a new user account in Windows and see if iTunes opens. That will tell you if there's something funky in your main account (if the new user works), or if you have a system-wide issue.
