Quicktime Processor Usage?

Question

Why is it that my Quicktime program is using 90+% of my processor?

Its not even doing anything. Its only on the main title screen when i first open it. Its really slowing down my computer. Why would Quictime need to use so much for nothing? And how can i make it stop using it all?

Its not the startup i am getting at here. Its just Quicktime in general being retarded. I know how to turn it off and not make it start up.

I noticed that when its running (when i need it to) it was using all the processor. SO i stopped all the quicktime processes and just left the welcome page up and its still using all off the processor. For what reason does it feel the need to use all my power to do nothing?

So if i want to watch a quicktime movie, its really choppy playback.

And yes, i have a 3.0ghz processor, 2gb ram, a very good video card, plenty of volts.

Just quicktime is being stupid and being very excessive.

You don't need it running so, what you can do is click ctrl + alt + delete. Then where is says quicktime.exe (or what ever its abbreviation is (.exe)) click on it and at the bottom click END PROCESS.

If you never want quicktime to load when you start up, go to start-run, type MSCONFIG, click on startup, and un-check the quicktime box. click apply and restart!
