iPodService.exe (service) is terminated with an error

[goatape]

Hello,

After I have upgraded iTunes to the latest version (8.1.0.52), iPodService ends of the (. exe)-service, with an error.

I can no longer be on my iPod (3G, 30 GB) access!

Can someone help me?

System: WinXP SP2.

Hi,

Itunes 6 application will restart the service if you have disabled it in Control Panel Services. If you put C:\Program files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe into a folder of the same name, the folder is opened when you start Itunes 6. SO, Itunes 6 must be simply executing C:\Program files\iPod\bin\iPodService.exe There are two options to rid of this program:
1.) Rename the exe to something totally different. Itunes will look for iPodService.exe and not find it.
OR
2) Copy a "do nothing" exectuable over iPodService.exe. Itunes will still find the exe, and the exe will do nothing.

Under D+ /custom secutrity policy double click on iPodService.exe then choose " use a predifined policy" then choose " isolated application", this should block it.
