Hello Oliver,
Here is some more info, taken from
http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/pngstatus.html :
"As a related item, note that Microsoft's Internet Information Server
(a.k.a. IIS) shipped by default without an explicit MIME type for PNG
images until version 6, which effectively meant that it treated PNGs as
application/octet-stream rather than image/png. Not surprisingly, this
affected only non-Microsoft web browsers connecting to IIS servers; they
rightly refused to display such mislabelled PNGs. Fortunately, Microsoft
did finally correct the problem with the release of IIS 6.0 in 2003, and
a fix is available for older versions (at least for version 4.0)."
So that goes along with my initial ideas.
Anyway those are my quick thoughts on your problem with your client's
IIS instance. If you want to contact me directly and we can work
through this together with your client please do.

Hi Jeff,
I do not have my hand on that server so I cant test it myself, I was
only relaying the question.
I did read the article but I failed to see how it would solve the problem.
I will relay that info to the server admin and see if it works.
thank you
best regards
Oliver
Hello Oliver,
It can't hurt to try the steps outlined in that link I provided. It
would answer the questions you posed in your last email.
