Frank,
There are differences between the two computers.

summarized ... these are

home vs work
developer vs player
no QT vs QT
MAForums OK (dev & player) vs - MAForums not OK
(i.e. does open, but does not return data to the form from the MA Forum, when clicking on the Load button.)


Given that set of differences, and a problem with an app that retrieves stuff from the Internet, my first guess would be a corporate firewall issue. I haven't looked at the app (couldn't see it on Sarah's site from the description - could you give me a URL please). But even if it "only" does HTTP "get"s, it's possible to get firewall problems.

If practical, I'd try to eliminate that as a potential problem first. If you can (i.e. it's a laptop, and you're allowed), take the home machine in to work and try it there. Or, install the 10-hour Dreamcard developer trial at work and see if it then works OK.

Not sure why the Quicktime would make a difference - whether installed or
not.

Almost certainly doesn't in this case - but there are quite a lot of stacks (mostly developed on Macs) that just assume it will be there (safe on a Mac, very wrong on Windows), so it's a common cause of problems that happen on some machines and not others.
