A link for "MobileMe Preferences" has begun appearing at the bottom of the Control Panel screens of those who have installed the latest Apple iTunes software -- according to one user, without any notification at all.

Quite funny that it took them a week to even notice this since iTunes 7.7 was released back on the 10th now. I noticed it right away when I installed it on my XP partition at the time. I can't recall if it was in the release notes or not, but as a MobileMe subscriber it didn't bother me at all anyway.

I don't think it came from iTunes 7.7. I have it and do not have the MM icon in Control Panel. Though I'm running XP I can't imagine they'd have a different process for each version of Windows.

I've got it in XP.

This was the only reason I even installed iTunes 7.7 in my Windows XP installation in the first place, lulz.
