Default Advertisements coming via Quicktime

Hi Guys,

Since reinstalling Quicktime (after finding out how to uninstall a difficult install via this forum) I have been getting requests via Quichtime to allow them to show ads. Below this request is the Advert. Can I filter these out please?

Enjoy,

Nimshie29

You can only filter these forced quicktime advertisements if you buy the full version off Apple. It is pretty cheap, I bought it for my Apple Mac. However if these ads are not from quicktime it may be a quicktime plugin you have, this wouldnt be solved by purchasing the full version of quicktime.

If you live in the UK you can get quicktime here - Apple (UK and Ireland) - QuickTime
or USA here - Apple - QuickTime

I don't like Quicktime, evrytime I put it on my computer it takes over. I like to use Winows Media Player.

Thanks robputt796 and thenotsosmartcomputerguy,

Some sites I receive will only operate with Quicktime (as far as I know). Looks like I may have to get a copy of Pro.

Thanks for your info. guys,

Regards,
Nimshie29

Nimshie29,

I never find that the QuickTime plugin displays ads, apart from one asking to buy Pro. These ads may not actually be coming from QuickTime. Can you provide a screenshot?
