iTunes store error

[RyanLang]

I keep getting a connection error (when I am very obviously connected to the internet) when I try to sign in or even create a new account at the iTunes Music Store. I've enclosed a pic of what the error looks like. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks.

I get this very infrequently with the iTMS... waiting a few hours and trying to reconnect usually fixes it.

Does this happen consistently -- all the time? Or is it sporadic in nature? Have you tried simply restarting the computer? -- sometimes I find this helps.

I was thinking I might need a good restart. I'll try it and get back to ya if it persists (its important because my girlfriend got me a 25 dollar itunes card for xmas!) - Thanks

no luck, should I wipe out iTunes and reinstall it or something?
