This isn't a problem with Fle3. The link you had was a newly added webtop file (yesterday) and for some reason its MIME type was "application/octet-stream", so the problem was somewhere in the uploader's browser.

Of course it might be that Fle3 needs to be more lenient on MIME types... But that's another issue.

[Additional information]

This has probably something to do with exporting the database from a previous version of Fle3 and importing it to the current one. The mime types might not get exported from the old version.

Under some cirumstances FLE3 fails to publish an object with a proper MIME-type (it gives none).

This causes for example Mozilla to prompt a SAVE dialog upong trying to view such an object (Mozilla thinks it is a binary file of type .EXE on the Windows platform).

One example:
