Why does iTunes setup need to close Outlook?!

Posted on 17:22 by Unknown
Everytime I update iTunes I remember why I left it so long - the install process is quite annoying! Can someone please explain to me why it's necessary to close Microsoft Outlook and Internet Explorer while installing iTunes?

It drives me even more crazy when I see Apple advertisements poking at certain annoyances in Windows yet Apple is usually the worst offender - Apple clearly does not understand the Windows environment, even though most of their software users are Windows users.

Now only if I could understand why it creates shortcuts everywhere meanwhile it only has 2 checkboxes to disable a few of them. grr!
