Sorry, you're out of luck. MOV files are only playable by Apple software.

You can install Quicktime.
Make sure you do a custom install and when you configure, uncheck almost everything except only those files specific to it. Don't let it start at boot, etc.
Various versions available:
http://www.apple.com/support/quicktime/
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/guide/hd/recommendations.html
After that, if you have very many .mov files, I would search for a utility to convert them.
