Opera fucking up *.mov dls

My Opera keeps trying to make *.mov files into a bunch of incoherent characters, instead of opening QT like it should.. how do I fix this?

All QuickTime movies? Check to see if Opera can see the QuickTime plugin first.

Also, it could be a web server misconfiguration.

I've found that Opera does not get along too well with Quicktime for some reason. My copy (opera 6.0) refuses to use the QT plugin even after I installed the damn thing and spent way too much time mucking around with the configuration. I don't remember if it screwed up on QT downloads since I always used the "save link as" option and saved the thing to disc before viewing.

Ok I'll just keep that in mind then. Thanks.
