So, you must have a plugin for it.
Can you browse to about:plugins to see what plugin is used
for .mov extentions and is it enabled?
I have latest F13 fedora and
MIME Type          Description Suffixes Enabled
video/quicktime  Quicktime   mov       Yes
but the video link referred to by Alex does not play.
