First, you ask about AVI (DivX / Xvid). For that, get Perian, link below.

Then you switch gears and ask about "I keep trying sites and it says that cannot load on my computer." Sites have only five ways to display video:
-- QuickTime (you already have).
-- Flash video (you already have).
-- Shockwave (install the plugin from get.adobe.com/shockwave).
-- WMV (install Flip4Mac, link below).
-- Proprietary player on the server. (nothing to install needed by you)
 
I have firefox laptop Mac 10.5. I want to watch some movies off of my bit torrent and quicktime is only showing a black screen and no sounds. So im assuming I need a xvid and some DivX codec for it to work.

The thing is I am trying and I keep trying sites and it says that cannot load on my computer. And then something about a system key. Im wondering if I have a firewall that is causing problems?
