Today is the anniversary of the birth of
_hannelore and the coming of the three Wise Triceratops to placate her with gifts of mini muffins.
It is traditional upon this day to eat a mini muffin in her honor.

I ventured into the Firefox support forum and found out why the Quicktime plugin wasn't working right; it's incompatible with 64 bit OSes.
Here's the workaround:
1. Find the Firefox installation directory,
2. Open the properties page for the Firefox executable, and;
3. On the Compatibility tab, enable XP (SP2) compatibility mode.
When the QuickTime plug-in is loaded, the Aero theme will be disabled, with an accompanying screen blank. When you close Firefox, Aero will be re-enabled.
