QuickTime support in windows without the player

Want to use Windows Media Player to watch QuickTime movies without the Apple player (which I find has a poor user interface, and non standard windows controls)?

The best part is that it includes a DirectShow filter. This means that any application on Windows that supports DirectShow (Windows Media Player, Media Center) can just play .mov files. Sweet!
