[cw-discuss] Quicktime causes ./iexplore to crash flat out.

[Jeremy White]

Hi Zeno,

I'm afraid it sounds like you've got an unusual problem.
What version of Linux are you running?  You might want to
run through our FAQ and see if any of the specific FAQs
about SELinux and other things help.

For example, I can view trailers with Quicktime 6 and I
can visit www.microsoft.com in IE just fine.

However, Apple has recently updated Quicktime 7, and it no
longer works properly in CrossOver, I'm afraid.  And many
Apple trailer sites now require Quicktime 7.  (Actually, what
they do is even worse - they *claim* to require Quicktime 7,
but actually run fine in Quicktime 6 if you spoof them.  Grrr.)

Cheers,

Jeremy
