When I began the installation of QuickTime 4, it wanted to shut down all active apps before proceding. I hit "Continue", and it proceed to send quit events to everything that was running.

However, NiftyTelnet is running, whenever sent a quit event, it first prompts the user to confirm that it should really close any active connections. It seems like the QT4 installer choked on this, and decided to freeze.

I started force-quitting apps until I got to NiftyTelnet. After Nifty closed, the installation completed normally.

I ran into very similar problem during my installation of QT4 Pro. The installer requested and proceeded to close all applications except for the Remote Access Status app (My internet connection was still working). So I force-quit the installation, closed ISP connection, quit Remote Access Status app, and then restarted QT4 Pro installation again. Everything went smoothly afterward.

I had a slightly different problem, the installer informed me that a more recent version of the installer was available, and it was going to quit the current installer, download it and so on...It has never worked for me...

Thanks
