    Under NT4sp6, MSIE5 is fine, Opera5.11 is fine, NS4.7 pops up some nonsense
    about upgrading my Quicktime plugin and then displays the image in the
    centre of the view port.
    
    Lynx is being served image/png; Opera got a PNG; who knows what MSIE got
    because it won't tell you (it wants to save file 'unknown' as BMP if you try
    'Save Picture As', and "Properties" gives a file size of -1 [yes, negative
    one] bytes); NS seems to think it's a Quicktime file.
    
    Hmm.
