Most likely you are sending a bad content type. Check and see what content
type you are sending to the browser. Sending bad content types does not
normally affect IE because it mostly ignores mime types and sniffs the
content instead however it is pretty much the only browser that will
ignore that stuff since the others adhere to specs.
