Quicktime has taken over!

I installed Quicktime and it has taken over all mp3s and .au files from websites that i visit. before this a window would pop up and let me choose if i wanted to use Windows Media Player or play it in the brower. i let quicktime play one movie trailer because it looked better in the brower and the media button thingy built into IE is too small and now it plays everything.... is there a way to disable this / recommend a program to replace both WMP and quicktime that is better?

First, go into QuickTime's options/preferences and de-select everything that has problems (or 'all' of them). Then go to a picture (or any media) you want to open, right click while holding shift key down and choose 'open with' and select file type. Choose the one you want to use such as 'jpeg' and choose 'always open this type file with etc. etc. If what you want to use isn't there, choose 'windows explorer'...

About half way down this page is a program called QuickTime Alternative. QuickTime Alternative will allow you to play QuickTime files (.mov, .qt and other extensions) without having to install QuickTime Player. It also supports QuickTime content that is embedded in webpages. The QuickTime plugins include iPIX and QuickTimeVR. The QuickTime Browser plugin supports Internet Explorer, Opera, Mozilla and Netscape.
