Plays movies for me, too. Look for the plugins folder under Library/Internet Plug-Ins (the main Library folder, not the one under your users folder).

Hmmm for me it says "Error loading Quicktime Plugin.plugin" I think it used to work...Do you guys have a netscape plugin in the plugins folder or is it some kind of Carbonized Plugin?

Well, it is called a Netscape plugin, but it seems only to work with IE 5. It is carbonized, since it is a package with several different contents.

What I'd like to know is when is there going to be a shockwave player for OS X? I mean, there's a flashplayer, but half the time it's not much use without shockwave.

Geez...Not even Apple's Own Quicktime Plugins on mine dont work yet...much less Flash, Shockwave, etc...

I dont understand about the plugins... when I try to play a movie from Apple's Hardware Ad's Website It says "Error Loading Quicktime Plugin.plugin" and I look in the plugins folder and its there. Is it supposed to be a new kind of plugin made for OS X? Because it has a Netscape Logo and the Finder says its a Netscape Plugin? Is that right?

QuickTime works fine here and always has done. Others will take time since I don't think that MS has released the IE plugin SDK for Carbon yet.

On another note, who cares - OmniWeb does flash! (albeit the outdated 4 spec)
