Well.. the above is in most cases a request for a CGI script to execute on the server, not a download.. it may result in some file of some type to get downloaded, or in a plain HTML response, or mostly anything else..

For HTTP requests the MIME type is assigned by the origin server. In your example above the MIME type of a download from a MS site is application/x-msdownload, not application/octet-stream, and if you want to block these downloads you should block replies of mime type application/x-msdownload. -- Henrik Nordstrom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MARA Systems AB, Sweden
