Hello Reinhard,

We do actually default the content-type to text/html whenever the server
does not send one ; so that should not be an issue.  And I have no problems
with the above site either.  I tried several links on the page as well.

Ahhh... I see you have KDE 2.0.1 which is very old in KDE development timeframe :-)
Please update to KDE 2.1 beta2 or wait for 2.1 final which should be coming soon
and that issue should be resolved.  Feel free to re-open the bug if the problem still
occurs there.

Thanks for the report.

Regards,
Dawit A.
