Fine here - probably you dont have the codec installed, not accepting cookies or you could try Tools > Adblock > Preferences > Adblock Options > turn obj-tag off

The Quicktime plug-in may need manual installation - if it works in Firefox.

I refuse to download it, as it now comes with iTunes.

In which case the Quicktime viewer wont install, because its not availiable for Firefox, or your not downloading it.

Yeah, I used to hate that massive download (as well as crap I don't want) over 56k...

But no, no, now it's okay... Any HP-provided installations of Windows XP (like on lappy here) automatically come with iTunes & QuickTime installed >.<

Just to verify, I'm running Quicktime OK here in Mozilla. Used to have loads of problems with it on other computers, though...
