Windows 2000 and QuickTime
Last night I spent hours trying to get QuickTime 4.1.2 installed properly on Windows 2000. No matter what I did, the browser plugins would not be installed, and Windows Media Player refused to give up control of those datatypes.
After much hacking, and manually copying the plugins from my machine onto this new one, I got it pretty much working.
Bastards.
