Well, I've learned a lot about downloading Quicktime over the last week.
:-)

This is how I finally figured out how to download the high resolution
trailer:  In Netscape, in the Location: field, I pasted in
http://a1652.g.akamaitech.net/7/1652/559/96504077ca22bab4aa3f1447992178c8/harrypotter.warnerbros.com/med/trailer/harry_potter_trailer_qt_hi.mov

The trailer downloaded, and I watched it. It's not all there, but a lot
less patchy or black as the low resolution version, or the Real Player
version.

Then to download it, I chose "Save as:" under File. There may have been
a quicker or more direct way, but this was the best I could do. I
thought I'd share in case there is someone else who's struggled as much
as I have trying to download the trailer so we can watch it over and
over again without having a temporary download.

Oh, and I loved the trailer. Although I *really* can't see snotty little
Draco in leather pants after that!
