Do you see the Quicktime plugin in the plugins list when opening the URL about:plugins?

Reporter, do you still see this problem with the latest Firefox 2? If not, can you please close this bug as WORKSFORME. Thanks!

works for me with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.2; en-US; rv:1.9a6pre) Gecko/20070701 Minefield/3.0a6pre ID:2007070104 and QuickTime Plug-in 7.1.6 without problems. Closing as works for me also because of missing feedback.
