iTunes is crashing my entire OS

This started about an hour ago. I bought a bunch of stuff from the iTunes Store, and was waiting for all the downloads to complete. I had created a new playlist and was moving stuff into it as the downloads finished -- I've done this before, no problem. Suddenly, a greyish translucent screen rolled down from the top of my screen and gave me a message (in several different languages) that I needed to restart my computer. When I restarted, it showed me the error report saying that OS X had quit unexpectedly, etc. Now this happens every time I try to open iTunes. I've updated OS X, iTunes, QuickTime, and I've installed the latest Firmware update as well. I even removed iTunes completely and reinstalled it. Nothing is working. I can't find anything about this on Apple's site, and I don't know what else to try.

I have an iMac with a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, and I'm running Mac OS X 10.5.2 and iTunes 7.6.2
 
I got it fixed. As it turns out, it was a kernel error and to fix it I had to restart my computer in safe mode (by holding down the shift key during startup), and then open Accounts in System Preferences. Then I selected the Login Items tab and removed the item that was in there, which was iTunes Helper. Then I restarted, and miraculously everything was fine.
