Nice software installation has two options: typical (for the lame users) and custom (for the sophisticated). QuickTime viewer (for windows) is annoying in its notorious attempts to put qttask.exe to run everytime upon the system startup. Even if you disable that, once you use the viewer, it inserts qttask.exe back into the registries. I despise Apple for this.
