Apple drops support for Quicktime on Windows, critical remote execution bugs remain
Details are murky, but apparently Apple sort-of mentioned that they were deprecating Quicktime for Windows back in January. Now a pair of critical remote code execution bugs have been reported, and Apple's response to AV supplier Trend Micro is that they will not be fixed because Apple's support for Quicktime for Windows has ended. The recommended security solution is to remove Quicktime immediately.
