This is not 100% on-topic, but somebody out there can probably answer this.
Lately, my boot-ups are interrupted by a screen which says: "In order to check for updates of your QuickTime software, the QuickTime website must be contacted. If you have a dialup connection make sure it is active, then click the 'Continue' button to check for the software." I went to the QuickTime Settings control panel and made sure that the "Check for updates automatically" box is unchecked. I searched my hard drive for anything that might look like it is causing this, and came up dry. I tried deleting the QuickTime Preferences. Nothing works, the offending screen keeps coming up every time I reboot. I do have the latest version of QuickTime, I read MacUpdate every day, I always download the latest version, and I do not need to keep checking for new versions of QuickTime, which I use only rarely. So, please, what is causing this nuisance screen to keep coming up, and how do I get rid of it? I'll grant that the answer is probably simple, and that my failure to find it automatically demotes me to low-power-user. OS 8.6 on a PowerBook G3. Thanks & best regards to all, Bill _______________________________oOo______________________________ William D.
