QuickTime Full Installer. Stand-alone (Linked the the .exe file because Apple can't code HTML.
As for your Mozilla problem... the latest 'stable' version is 1.7.5. Usually the first step before asking for help is checking for the latest versions unless you have a reason to use the old one. |

That's probably because knuck's got some sort of movie in his profile. I get the same thing when I open it, and I click 'Install Missing Plugins', and it tells me Quicktime is needed. I never get past that step though, as it always tells me I have to manually install it, and I'm not downloading iTunes just to get it |

something like that happens in firefox for me, I click a link and it just loads the same page for me and I have to click the link again.
so its not the same, and im not sure whats causing it, its very odd. |

The problem you have with Mozilla, I don't know how to fix it, but I happened when I Went to someone's profile (strangly, it worked fine if I disabled javascript.... but there wasn't any redirecting javascript in that person's profile ) |

For the Winamp problem, from what I've read on 3 sites (the first two of which I can't remember now), there's supposed to be two .dll files. 'in_usf.dll' goes in the plugins directory of the Winamp folder, while RSP.dll goes in the main folder. I don't know if you've got it set up that way already, but if you don't, it's worth a shot If you want to know the site I read that on, click this link.
I'm not sure why Mozilla would act that way, as I'm not using it, and I wasn't able to find anything on google, so hopefully someone else knows what's the matter there
As for your BitTornado problem, the only thing I can see that would probably be responsible for making the program take a long time to seed is having another instance of it running as well. Doing a google search for 'bittornado takes a long time to check existing files' didn't turn up any useful information |

I've recently been having some odd problems with a few programs... They don't really affect anything but they're rather annoying.
Winamp 5: When I open it, it says rsp.dll wasn't found and closes, but if I open it again right after that, it works fine. One time it even opened with the error message on the screen, and ran fine for a minute or two, then came up with the generic XP error message even though it was still running fine. It's been doing this ever since I installed some plugins (64th Note and Alpha-II are all I remember), though they're the same versions that worked fine before.
Mozilla 1.6: Every now and then when I click a link (only here, actually ) it opens the page, and after it's completely finished loading, it goes back to the last page. Just as if I'd hit Back but the Forward button is still disabled. It's just started recently, I haven't changed the settings or anything. Checking the page source reveals nothing unusual and if I click the link again it works just fine.
BitTornado 0.38: When I open a torrent file to start seeding it, the majority of the time, it takes about 20 minutes to check the existing files. This happens regardless of other disk access, resource usage etc, usually when another instance of BT is running. Other times it finishes in just a few seconds. It's not the files themselves; the same ones can take anywhere from 2 seconds to 20 minutes randomly. |
