Default Quicktime Problem - Please Help!

So, I am having a chronic problem with Quicktime and I wanted to know if anyone knows how to fix it.

Below is a screenshot of a trailer playing on Quicktime in Firefox, notice that the controls for Quicktime are blacked out. The controls are still there - if I click on various places on the bar I can get different things to happen but the controls are blacked out. I have reinstalled both firefox and quicktime repeatedly with no luck.

Thanks to anyone who can help!

Does this problem only occur in Firefox? Do you have the problem in IE?

Might be a browser issue.

I absolutely HATE the quicktime browser plugins. Apple is a terrible developer on the Windows platform...

I usually set the .mov file type to open outside of the browser in Quicktime itself.

If nothing else switch the QT preference to show videos in the player.

Happens in both IE and Firefox, amazingly.

Change your Windows theme.
