I have manually installed Quicktime. I have verified the installation by successfully playing a movie at http://trailers.apple.com/. Still, http://www.merriam-webster.com/audio.php?file=test0001&word=test&text=\%CB%88test\ shows an error message:

A plugin is needed to display this content.

Install plugin...

Clicking the button shows that Quicktime is required!!!

I recently restored my Windows Registry, so maybe Firefox or Quicktime are getting confused. Nobody should rely on the Registry being correct!

I am stuck, like so many others.

Your System Details List shows the QuickTime plugin as installed.

You may have to check the QuickTime to make sure that you have enabled this file type for QuickTime.
