Kevin, you said: IMHO we should really keep the list that is checked to a minimum (being the list Windows checks) as this code is basically doing "If a web server reports a MIME type in this list, ignore it and make our own guess" which is totally wrong standards-wise and a major cause of many problems under IE on Windows..
(Apologies for the lack of quoting.) According to that appendix, IE should only be overriding MIME types that are text/plain, application/octet-stream, or empty. It does so because it considers these "ambiguous". I think your patch may be useful for the small set of types you suggest, but shouldn't you only override in these cases too?
