Inevitably you’re going to come across some web sites that still (for whatever reason) insist on delivering video content in QuickTime and not Flash. And of course at that point you have to download QuickTime via QuickTime.com.
Mac users never have a problem with QuickTime because it works superb with MacOS. However as many people are aware, Apple doesn’t exactly program things for Windows that “play nice”, so to speak. There are some that think Apple’s QuickTime is so bad they they call it the “New RealPlayer” (in reference to how Real’s RealPlayer software really sucked).
Is there an alternative? Absolutely. You can try out QuickTime Alternative. Compared to regular QuickTime, this loads fast and isn’t bulky at all.
Try it out. You may like it.

Yesterday I tried to open a file that told me it was a flash file and every time I tried to open it I got a blank window that said done at the bottom, so I went to Flash and downloaded and installed the latest version of flash and I still could not get it to open on a Windows XP system.
