Why was my msi saved as a man?

User downloads an .msi install file from one of my Linux web servers using Internet Explorer and discovers it saved as a .man file. What's up? What's up is that .msi is not included in the standard MIME types loaded for the typical Apache web server on Linux. What needs to be there is

application/octet-stream msi

Since octet-stream is already listed, I just added msi to the list in /etc/mime.types:

application/octet-stream bin lha lzh exe class so dll img iso msi
