I've upgraded to firefox 4/snow leopard and now my .avi's won't play using the quicktime plugin. What am I doing wrong?

I'm unable to play .avi's in Firefox 4 that worked fine in Firefox 3. I just get a blank page. I've also upgraded from Leopard to Snow Leopard (prior to upgrading Firefox) since the last time I viewed them.

I'm serving these files from my local harddrive so the url starts with file::

I believe these were displayed using the quicktime plugin. Firefox reports my current quicktime plugin as version 7.6.6

I need to get this working because I'm giving a talk soon, and I've been using references in my talk pdf to link to the movies.

Just checked, and my movies play fine in Safari. Crud. I'd rather not have to switch to Safari as my default browser. Yuk.

Update: Turns out this is only a problem when the .avi is stored locally and served locally. I uploaded the file to a server and then pointed Firefox there. In that case it displays just fine. Weird.
