| The bad press alone from annoyed users would be enough to make them stop this, one would think. Furthermore, now they are only bundling the player (which you prolly HAVE to have for one reason or another) with ITUNES - another Apple monstrosity, with DRM no less - so you can't get the player by itself. Would somebody PLEASE make a QT alternative that works without having to install Quicktime?? | |||

| May be save but resource-wasting background process, but may also be a known virus or trojan. Either way, I would get rid of it. There's no need for the taskbar icon or auto-startup. | |||

| Thanks for the comments. I will leave it alone as most of you say that it keeps coming back after it is removed. | |||

| Quicktime checks to see if the entry is present and restores it if it has been removed. WORKAROUND: place a ; (semi colon)in front of the entry, which turns it into a registry remark rather than a function. | |||

| Unnecessary and most folks don't use it. The qttask.exe process provides a system tray icon that you can use for quick access to the QuickTime application and additional settings. If you use the system tray icon to launch QuickTime you should leave this process running, otherwise you can terminate it to free up system resources and/or space on your start bar.

| Safe but annoying and unnecessary. Must be disabled; simply removing from the registry will result in Quicktime restoring the entry upon the next the program run. | |||
