           Summary: MS Office document files downloaded are automatically
                    incorrectly renamed with template extensions
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 526+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh PowerPC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: clayton.nash at gmail.com


When downloading a word or powerpoint document from some (but not all)
websites, the downloaded file is renamed to have a .dot or .pot extension added
to the filename.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/m0l2r1 is is an example of correct behaviour.
To reproduce the aberrant behaviour email the document downloaded above to a
gmail account, go to the gmail web interface and click the download link. The
file is downloaded as webkit_test.doc.dot instead of webkit_test.doc.
This behaviour also manifests itself in my Exchange web interface on-line email
and a number of other private document sharing services I use. The behaviour is
the same if the document is simply clicked on or is right clicked and "Save As"
is chosen.

Additional information:
I am running the daily builds of webkit but this also happens in the latest
version Safari. I have MS Office 2004 and 2008 installed on this machine. I
have used the office web email interface extensively for the past 2 years and
this was not the behaviour previously. However since I switched about between
Firefox and Safari I couldn't say when this began.
