It was only temporary. As you can see from the link below it was supposed to
stop in Januar 2004

However it seems now that Microsoft have got this extended until September
30 2004

However as far as I understand it is an old version they skip with XP and
it can give problems for some users.

And removing this to install a new one from sun is not just the easy way you
do it on a Mac.
Quicktime is installed by some computers with Windows. I believe at least HP
does it.
However for English, German and French users the installation progress
from Apple is very simple. And the 5 mb download you need for standard QTVR
is really not much today.
Some other languages like Danish, Spanish and Italian have to download the
full 11 mb standalone installer as a zip. Thats what they get automatically
if you try to install from a webpage with Quicktime.
