I love Front Row on my new macbook. All my music and videos are stored on a Windows XP desktop, which I connect to using iTunes sharing.

Is there a way to get the iTunes sharing to start automatically when the xp machine is switched on? ie, as a windows service. I'd prefer this rather than having to log-in and run iTunes every time I want to share its music to other machines. Anyone know what options there are for this?

TIA
