Not really sufficient.  IE will completely ignore mime types and go 
with its own guess as to the type.  It's even possible to persuade it 
that a JPEG is an HTML file by embedding some HTML in the comment 
field.  You need to blank-fill the beginning of a file if you want to 
avoid this--assuming of course that the file type you are trying to 
use supports something like that.

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.
