Quicktime... that may explain it.  I installed a new game last week, 
and it installed some Quicktime things, and apparently deleted or 
disabled a piece of Quicktime that I had running.  I haven't had a 
chance to pin it down to reinstall it.  I've had other weird goings 
on because of the missing QT piece.  Never occurred to me that this 
might be connected.

I will also try the dontUseQT call and see if that fixes it.

Thanks!
