The included Media Player Classic supports it and works very well. The QuickTime Browser plugin supports Internet Explorer, Opera, Netscape and Mozilla. The QuickTime plugins include iPIX and QuickTimeVR.
Some advantages compared to QuickTime player :

- QuickTime Codecs [version 7.1.6.200]: required for playing QuickTime content.
- QuickTime DirectShow filter: allows you to play QuickTime content in all DirectShow enabled players.
Without this filter QuickTime content can only be played in Media Player Classic.
- QuickTime plugin for Internet Explorer: allows you to view QuickTime content that is embedded in a webpage. It is installed together with the QuickTime codecs.
- QuickTime plugin for Opera/Firefox/Mozilla/Netscape... allows you to view QuickTime content that is embedded in a webpage.

GOM Player
This freeware media player comes with a ton of popular video codecs
preloaded. For codecs that GOM Player cannot handle, the software
automatically takes you to open source software sites to download the
appropriate files.
GOM Player can also handle partial AVI files. That means you can watch
movies while you're still downloading them. Or if you've only managed
to download part of the video, you can check it out to see if it's
worth downloading the rest.

KMPlayer
Like GOM Player, KMPlayer includes a ton of codecs for watching most
video files right out of the box. If you want to watch a file in a
proprietary format like h.264, you can specify an external decoder to
use with the media player.
KMPlayer can also handle damaged AVI files, Quicktime movies, and Real
Media files. You'll need to have RealPlayer and QuickTime installed,
or download Real Alternative and QuickTime Alternative.

6. Tape It Off the Internet
Previously mentioned web site Tape It Off the Internet (TIOTI) is an online television aggregator of sorts, allowing you to search for a show you want to watch and then offering several different options for viewing it. For example, if you're looking for the latest episode of Heroes, TIOTI may provide you with one link to a streaming online video of the episode, another link to a torrent to download the episode, or an additional link to buy it in iTunes—among other helpful information like episode summaries. If you've got a preferred method of streaming or downloading your favorite shows (for example, you really like BitTorrent), TIOTI probably isn't the first place you want to go. But if you've had trouble finding a show using other methods, you might get lucky and find a link that'll take you to the episode you're looking for at TIOTI.

Web site Tape It Off the Internet (TIOTI) is an online television portal designed to help you find and watch your favorite TV shows, either through streaming online video, BitTorrent downloads, or links to purchase the episode or season from iTunes or Amazon. The goal of TIOTI is to make finding and watching your favorite television shows easier than your regular BitTorrent experience—sort of a "non-geek" BitTorrent tracker and then some. TIOTI takes some getting used to, but if you've never been happy with the BitTorrent experience (even after our beginner and intermediate guides), Tape It Off the Internet might be worth a try.
