Apply Quicktime needed?

[dotDan]

FireFox keeps asking me to install it for the site--what exactly uses it?

nothin to my knowledge, i dont get any such thing, i am on firefox myself.

Hmm...I noticed some of the advertisement banners use Macromedia flash. Could the new PM notification use quicktime? If anything it would be flash sound effects. Maybe impactadmin or -=DCF=- could shed some light on this.

I got the same thing for awhile but it has cleared on it's own only to come back occassionaly. Hehe. I even tried to apply the update which you need to do manually with Firefox and I still got the warning meesages at the top of my browser. Cheers,

I don't think DNF uses QT for anything.

maybe someone linked a quicktime file?

Anyone know a Quicktime media file extension? I would go to the page that keeps asking you to download Quicktime and view source and search for the file extension.

.mov is the most popular

I'm familiar with QuickTime and how it works, but I viewed the source on the page requesting it and could find nothing.

Strange

I get the same problem.. have reinstalled and still the same.. it appears to be triggered by this code.

  <script type="text/javascript">
   <!--
   function log_out()
   {
       ht = document.getElementsByTagName("html");
       ht[0].style.filter = "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayscale=1)";
       if (confirm('Are you sure you want to log out?'))
       {
           return true;
       }
       else
       {
           ht[0].style.filter = "";
           return false;
       }
   }
   //-->
   
   </script>
