A custom installation is not necessary with QuickTime 7. All you have
to do is put a copy of QTJava.zip in the ImageJ plugins folder. Look
for QTJava.zip in places like C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem or
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0\lib\ext, or use the Windows Search
function to find it.

To "Compile and Run" plugins that use QuickTime, put the copy of
QTJava.zip in ...ImageJ/jre/lib/ext instead of in the plugins folder.
