As Hans already wrote, Windows Hijack is NOT a problem any longer. .mov
is the correct extension for Quicktime movies. Quicktime on Windows also
notifies you in case a different programm wants to handle .mov files,
but that is only relevant for stand alone movie files. On web-pages the
object and embed tags instruct the browser which plug-in to use. Often I
see web-pages, where people directly link to Quicktime movies. That is
not the correct way.
