Quicktime DivX Decoder Error

I am seeing the following message multiple times in my console:

Dock[243] Error loading /Library/QuickTime/DivX Decoder.component/Contents/MacOS/DivX Decoder: dlopen(/Library/QuickTime/DivX Decoder.component/Contents/MacOS/DivX Decoder, 262): no suitable image found. Did find: /Library/QuickTime/DivX Decoder.component/Contents/MacOS/DivX Decoder: no matching architecture in universal wrapper

I installed the latest version of Divx from their website but this did not solve the problem. Any suggestions on how to resolve?

2.66 GHz Quad Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.2), 27" 2.66 GHz iMac 10.6.2

[VLC media player|http://www.videolan.org/vlc> - general media player that plays just about anything.

[Perian codecs for Quicktime|http://www.perian.org] - plugins to add functionality to Quicktime for playing additional audio and video formats

Are you not getting playback or you are but you also have these messages? Per Limnos, move DivX component to the desktop and then install Perian 1.2 (free). Usually works better.
