I freakin' hate QT. Everytime I installed it, it would become the default for a bunch of plug-ins like WAV. Then everytime I clicked a wav file the stupid thing would bring up a new page and load it in the middle with a nice little bar. How dumb is that?

You can set which associations it will take over.... Just uninstall and reinstall it.

Custom install QuickTime, baby! Works EveryTime, ... or you can do this in QuickTime:

[*]Edit

[*]Preferences

[*]QuickTime Preferences...

[*](drop down list) choose File Type Associations

[*]uncheck those 3 checkboxes.

Alternatively, you can go to your MusicMatch's General settings and put a check on the Windows Media Files checkbox... or you can re-associate media file types with Windows Media Player:

[*]View

[*]Options...

[*]Formats tab

[*]and check the ones you want.

Then, there file type association with Winamp:

[*]Options

[*]Preferences... (or Ctrl+P for short)

[*]Setup --> File types

[*]select the file types to override QuickTime's evil doings

Finally, there is editing your registries under Folder Options or with a registry editor itself (e.g., Windows' very own Registry Editor).

You can use RAD Video Tools... to convert it to another format (e.g., AVI or MPEG-1) so you can view it with a preferred media player that is not QuickTime
