Quicktime browser settings

This is where you enable the QuickTime browser plugins for different types of media. (These settings do not determine which Windows file types are associated with QuickTime Player. That's done under "File Types".)

* Open the QuickTime Settings window from within the QuickTime Player ("Edit -> Preferences -> QuickTime Preferences") or by double-clicking "QuickTime" in the Windows Control Panel.
* Go to the Browser tab and click the MIME Settings button.
* Under each category, select the media types you wish QuickTime to handle in your browser. Do not enable Flash.
* Click OK.
