I notice that there are several places I have QT plugins (not all aliases
either). 

1. There are a couple loose in the HD: Quicktime plugin and
QuicktimePlugin.class,

2. The same two in the folder called Quicktime in my Applications folder

3. In the system folder in the folder "Internet plug-ins", the same two
characters show up

4. In a folder called "Plug-ins". Here they are aliases. (original being in
3 above)

And these characters show up in my browser folders also, eg. iCab...
Folder/Plug-ins

They are everywhere. In error I updated to QT 6 yesterday. So I have
forgotten where all were beforehand, but probably similar.

I'd say it was possible to have just the originals somewhere and all else
aliases. Right? Anyone have a simpler arrangement, I mean I don't mind THAT
much that they here there and everywhere but isn't this a bit ... well ...
showy of them?

And while I am at it, for a long time I have noticed and sometimes tried to
rationalise the Quicktime extensions in the system folder (with bad
results): There are some Quicktime extensions loose and some in a folder
called "Quicktime Extensions". Why can't they all go in the logical sounding
folder? 

And am I right to assume that "authoring" extensions can be inactivated if
one is just using the QT player to play things?

Please, don't anyone feel obliged to answer all these questions.

I am running 9.0.4 on a 7600 with a G3/4 upgrade ...
