he's being a smart ass. Telling you that you shouldn't have it installed in the first place. (which I tell people all the time as well lol)

Guessing there are some files being left over causing it to not want to open after a reinstall.

Maybe try uninstalling any codec packs you might have installed as they could interfere with Itunes.

Did you remove QuickTime at any point?

Do what Bman suggested and hopefully it will help.

Try opening it from the actual position. Not the shortcut. Go into the program folders > iTunes folder and opening it from there.
