Technical Difficulties

• Russ: every time i click on an mp3 link
• quicktime tries to play it
• pops up an upgrade dialog
• and crashes firefox
• it's fun.
• Drew: it's like 21st century whack a mole
• Russ: i blame you
• Drew: how come?
• Russ: you linked to an mp3 on your tweetstream
• Drew: what mp3?
• Russ: chu chu?
• Drew: that's a mpeg
• Russ: whatev
• Drew: ya, that link is my fault.
• sorry for crashing u
• Russ: quicktime handles like all my media files
• how dddo I make it stop.
• Drew: uh. there's a windows way i think. but an easy way is to right click a mpeg file, say "open with", pick a different app, and then say "always use this"
• Russ: huhn
• Drew: but i don't know exactly how to manage your associations
• Russ: i just opened the quicktime as an independent app
• thinking i'd upgrade
• and it crashed
• Drew: lolzers
• Russ: I'm reporting them to Microsoft!
• Drew: sounds like you need an upgrade badly!
• Russ: uninstall is your friend
• Drew: it has its moments
