Because Quicktime has a kernel extension (kext) or some-such which gets loaded at boot-time, prior to logging on. It is possible to manually reload a kernel extension, but it's not advised.

I've been going nuts with this issue and had no idea where the problen was. I left my MacBook Pro is at work, but I can't wait to test this. Rosetta has been a little flaky to say the least.
