Quicktime has taken control of video playback in Explorer

[Fidelis K]

I always like to have the Media Player launch itself and play back movie
clips when clicking movie links on the Internet. After the installation of
Quick Time, when I click movie links, QT plays movie clips within the
Internet Explorer. I don't like it. I spent some time trying to figure out
how to fix the problem but couldn't find a solution. Uninstalling QT is not
an option because I recently bought an iPod and it seems that QT is
automatically installed along with iTunes. Can anyone help?

I would look in the QT preferences for a way to disable the IE plugin.
Or look through the plugins in IE and disable the QT plugin.
