Are you sure that Itunes/Apple applications are not open in the system tray of your computer. i.e. bottom right hand corner look for a Q or iTunes icon.

Ta for the link, tried the suggestion on there and it still won't come off.

I haven't got any of it open, I never even used the iTunes bit cos it just came with the Safari download.... still getting these errors saying that there was an error whilst installing..... but I want it uninstalled!!!

For future reference, if you want to download off youtube, download the latest free version of realplayer, then if you hover over any video on any website with the mouse, a small box will pop up which you click and it will automagically download said video for you

Hi all, thanks for all the suggestions... but after countless attempts to get rid of the horrible applications...... and not managing it..... I managed to system restore back to before I installed it. Low and behold every single error message that was annoying the hell out of me has now disappeared....

Thanks again!

Did you google for removal tools? i.e quicktime removal tool, itunes removal tool and so forth.
I know theres specific tools to remove stubborn programmes but never tried any of the above

If all else fails might be worth just leaving it, if there loading up when windows boots you can stop them from loading up by going to start bar, then to run and type in msconfig, and go to start up at the top, and untick everything you dont want automatically loading up when windows starts.

I know thats not removing them but dont know how
