User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4 Previous versions (2.0.0.3) upload PPT properly, for some reason 2.0.0.4 uploads PPT files as text/html or "unknown" type to the receiving system (which then defaults to text/html). This is bad as we are getting corrupt file associations in document repositories. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Goto a file upload / document repository 2. Select a .ppt file to upload 3. check the associated type on the server (jsp smart upload or other utility recieves wrong info from Firefox client sending file information). Actual Results: File was saved to server with proper info except for contentType and contentSubType properties. Expected Results: Application/vng.ms-powerpoint

The reason is once you display a .ppt with an incorrect type, we'll remember it.
