User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1

At factcheck.org, if you click on a link (any *.aspx link) from the front page,
Firefox thinks it is not (x)html/css/web content and displays 
the open-with/save-as dialogue. Furthermore, if open-with is used to spawn
another copy of firefox, the opened page will be a local page and relative links
from within that page do not function.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to http://factcheck.org
2.Click on a link e.g. http://factcheck.org/article.aspx@docID=272
3.

Actual Results:  
Firefox displayed the open-with/save-as dialogue.

Expected Results:  
Open the link directly.
