And some sites depend on bugs in MSIE, such as its ignoring of Content-type 
and inferring the type from some other input such as the initial page 
content. For instance, I ran into a traceroute page that was outputting 
HTML, but the MIME type reported was text/plain, so Moz displayed the 
source instead of the rendered HTML.
