Ok. The attachment to this bug demonstrates that your browser is sending the file as text/plain and 
that the problem lies on your end and not in the Markup Validator, since the Validator and this Bug 
Tracking system are entirely separate codebases (and it's unlikely both would have the same bug).

Since this is not a problem in the Markup Validator I'm closing this bug report. We have however made 
a note that MSIE:win has problems in this regard and will investigate ways to alleviate the problem in a 
future version of the Markup Validator.

Since the problem is on your system it's not possible for us to troubleshoot it effectively. Sorry.

My only suggestion would be to download and install an alternative browser -- such as Mozilla.org's 
"Firefox" browser http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ (which is a better browser overall anyway) 
-- to work around this problem in IE (you will not need to remove IE to use another browser; both can 
be installed concurrently).

For further support with Internet Explorer problems I suggest you contect your local tech support 
department, or one of the Microsoft-related forums on the Internet. For instance, the USENET 
Newsgroup comp.infosystems.www.browsers.ms-windows may be able to shed some light on the 
problem.
