My PC won't let me watch stuff...Help!

[Phantom]

This is one of the many reasons I don't use my PC for internet that much now...



What causes that to come up ?
Completely deleting Quicktime sometimes worked before, but my younger brother insists on re-installing itunes again everytime. Do any of you know any other ways making these videos work again?

Oh yeah...the website which this keeps happening on is mega64.com
Watch the videos...they've really funny ...but please help me as well!

I'd say not using the crap that is Internet Explorer is the first step in the right direction. Give Firefox a try. See how that goes. And if it still doesn't, at least you'll have a better browser then.

iTunes has no real effect on Quicktime, so deleting and re-installing it is a complete waste of time.

Ok I might give firefox a try next time I'm using the pc

I know itunes alone doesn't effect anything, but everytime my bro downloads it, it installs quicktime stuff alongside. And my bro always does this when I'm not around, so he keeps clicking that "Make quicktime default player" thing I hate.
*sigh* Why can't he just use the windows player thing like I do...?

If it just happens on one site it's surely a server-side problem were the videos currently are down. Best thing is to ask if others have the same problem, if not...well, then get Mozilla Firefox...if it works...the get Mozilla Firefox ^_^

It's a much better browser with a lot of addons were you can block ads and script to be run. For example, google have a javascript on like every site in the world that tracks you and give you ads that follows your interests.

getfirefox.com

Goto preferences in Quicktime and make it not associate with Flash content mebbe.

May i ask why, or is the Wii Opera version your answer? Only thing i see FF doing better is the Add-ons system.

Well, I'm simply a Firefox guy, I like addons more than everything ^_^
What I meant was that I wouldn't get Opera if it was like on the Wii, but I don't think that is a fair to compare a PC browser against a Wii browser. Didn't really was serious about anything, just that IE is the worst one...ever...in 1 million years.

The interesting part is that IE7.0 is just like Firefox with the same hotkeys and nearly the same look.
