I have yet to figure out how to install plugins, as soon as I load up a page that has embedded quicktime or real media it just shows a "click" button for information on the plugin needed. Well I re-downloaded and installed quicktime because thats what it said to do and it didn't change or fix anything.
So then I tried going to file -> preferences in Opera and have this going on in there (I added the real and quicktime manually).

Any ideas on what is wrong?

No, I didn't have the selected. But it doesn't seem to matter because it has a pulldown menu that doesn't pulldown, and it doesn't allow me to type in it either...

http://www.opera.com/linux/docs/plugins/install/#flash

Well I'm not having problems with flash. And I'm not using Linux.

But aside from that it did point me to opera where I had searched before but not real intensly. So I finally found this page: http://www.opera.com/support/search/supsearch.dml?index=365&session=0517166a7f6dd01644904704ed354e97
But that was worthless, that dll doesn't exist on my system. Probably cause I don't have Netscape 4 or whatever ancient RealPlayer plugin existed back when Netscape 4 was out. I do have Netscape 7.1 though but it doesn't have that dll where it would be in Netscape 4. I did a manual search on my computer and did find that dll and copied it to where its supposed to be.

I also checked this page out concerning Quicktime: http://www.opera.com/support/search/supsearch.dml?index=141&session=0517166a7f6dd01644904704ed354e97
That was where I originally was at and it also was wrong on installing quicktime and poof it works. But I did manually find that dll and I'm going to restart opera now and see if that works.

Edit: worked.
