Most likely. Figures. =)

When I close a WMV movie that's playing in QuickTime, QuickTime crashes and displays the Send Error Report window. Does the same for the web-plugin too, tried it on Amazon's site and a few others. I tried removing the DivX plugins, but there's apparently no conflict there. Anyone else with...
