Default QuickTime Error

I posted this in the wrong forum I think, so let me try here.

Quicktime Error
Okay, I've spent most of my morning trying to search out the solution to this problem and I need to ask for help before I loose more of my hair from the pulling.

I just started using LW and have downloaded a few movies, some music and a file or two. Everything but the movies work just perfect. Each time I try to open a movie (be it a AVI or MP4/3) I get the same message:

QuickTime cannot open the file: "*****.mp4"
it is not a file that QuickTime understands (-2048)

I think I understand that it's the codec in the QuickTime? Is that correct? Where and how do I install the correct codec so that I can watch these damn things?
Also I have tried to play them in several different media players and none of them are working.
