In spite of the subject the problem isn't totally with .Mac (aka MobileMe).
Thanks to some issues with my DSL, I've had to temporarily move a couple
domains off of my personal server onto .Mac accounts (not a problem as I
have a family pack with only 2 used accounts.  The one domain is for a
non-profit that I am a Board Member of, and host the website for.  I've
setup the account as: http://web.mac.com/connerbishop and have DNS setup to
point to http://www.conner-bishop.org.  All of this works fine from Safari,
and Internet Explorer.  However, when attempting to open the page in Firefox
it gives a very odd error.
-----------------------  Error Message -----------------
You have chosen to open 
  which is a: application/octet-stream
  from: http://web.mac.com
  What should Firefox do with this file?
	[ ] Open with [Browse...]
	[x] Save File
--------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone happen to have any idea what on earth is going on here?  I don't
know why Firefox things this is an application/octet-stream.
