Added file type in IIS6
Use MIME type
MULTIPURPOSE Internet Mail Exchange (MIME) Type Description Web browser or mail application how to handle files received from the server. For example, when a web browser requests an item on a server, the MIME type of this object will also request. Some MIME types (such as graphics) can be displayed inside the browser. Other MIME types (such as text processing documents) require an external help application to display.
When IIS transmits message messages to the mail application or delivery web page to the client web browser, IIS also sends the MIME type of the transferred data. If there is an additional or embedding file passed in a specific format, IIS will notify the client application to embed or attached the MIME type of the file. The client application then knows how to handle or display data received from IIS.
IIS only provides services for files with extensions that have been registered in the MIME Type list, and also allows other MIME types and changes or delete MIME types.
IIS pre-configured to identify default settings for the global MIME type. All sites you created in IIS can identify these MIME types. The MIME type can also be defined at the site and directory level independently of the type of other or global definitions. When viewing the MIME type at the site or directory level, only the only type of the unique corresponding to this level is displayed, which is not all types from the previous level. If the MIME type is applied at a lower level, the same MIME type is applied at the global level, then the global level MIME type will override the MIME type modified at a lower level.
If the client request references its extension not defined in the MIME type, IIS will return a 404.3 error. By adding a wildcard (*) MIME type, you can also configure the IIS to provide services to all files, and ignore the file extension.
It is important to be a member of the Administrators group on the local computer or must be delegated to perform the following steps. As the best operation of security, use an account that is not a Administrators group to log in to the computer, and then run the IIS Manager as an administrator using the running mode.

If you define a MIME type that is already a higher level, the system will prompt you to select the level of this MIME type should reside. Click OK.
The following figure shows the relationship between the MIME type defined in IIS and the relationship between the file type defined on the client computer. Remove the MIME type from the website or directory
