I want to check to see if this is a user-account-specific issue, or if it is systemwide. (This isn't going to be a cure in itself, but it might be able to help us narrow in on some further troubleshooting possibilities.)
Creat a new Windows user account on the PC with full administrative rights. Log out of your usual account and log into the new account. (Don't use fast user switching to move between accounts.)
Try launching iTunes in the new user account while you're connected to the internet. The iTunes Setup assistant should run. Don't add any files when prompted to do so, just let iTunes open to an empty library.
Does itunes open to an empty library? Or do we get another error?
If iTunes opens, try visiting the Store from the new account. Does the store open for you, or do you get an error instead?

Dec 2, 2011 5:10 AM in response to iZamaby marlene274,I had the same problem wit Itunes not working while the internet was on, what I realized is I had downloaded a certain language translation software, I can't remember the name now but once I removed the program all of a sudden it started working while the internet was on, no clue what the actual problem was with that program but if your itunes is working wihtout the internet there is probably a program you've downloaded that is interfering with it for one reason or another. Try thinking what the most recent programs you installed on your computer (maybe a language related one?) maybe one of them is causing your problem.
Good luck!
