Hi, When we access wikipedia.org using any of English, Francais, Portugues, Espanol or Nederlands (other langauges seem to be file), we receive an error message along with a file download (rather than the wikipedia web page): File Download - Security Warning Do you want to save this file? Name: Main_Page Type: Unknown File Type From: en.wikipedia.org Our Firewall is set to allow only 'safe' content types (i.e. standard ones plus any that I have added). It therefore blocks any web pages that have no content types or unknown ones. I mention this as our firewall (A Watchguard Firebox x1000) reports a Duplicate Content-Type header found. I have added the content types: application/xml application/xhtml application/xhtml+xml But the error continues. Occasionally the page appears but clicking any links provokes the error message for another file / folder. I have a rule which allows me to circumnavigate the restrictions (i.e no content type or surfcontrol checking) and wikipedia is then fine. Please let me know if there is a special content type etc you use recently, as our college opens soon and wikipedia is a frequently hit site.

I don't believe this bug is a duplicate, though there may be a relationship with 7098. I am using IE6 and WinXP, though have tried with W2000, W2K3 and other versions of IE. I believe the issue is with the MIME / content types. I probably just need to know what MIME types I should allow from you... Andy

It's a duplicate. IE will not display that message if you're receiving HTML, no matter what the page extension is; if you don't provide it with an extension it recognizes, it guesses. Please don't reopen this unless you've verified that the file is not a gzip file, such as by attempting to open it as a gzip with a program that can open gzips. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 7098 *** *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 7098 ***
My apologies Simetrical. Have downloaded the file, added gzip extension and opened in Winzip. Contained another file which I saved as .htm and indeed got your front page.... I'll leave you to it and look back at 7098 later.. Kind regards, Andy
