Hi Chris

I have a VA installation and in RISC OS 6.2 (as opposed to
4.02 which you are using) there is a MimeMap in the Network
configuration. It lives at:

HardDisc4.$.!boot.Choices.Default.Internet.Files.MimeMap

I would think that's where it lives in your set up (but I'm
willing to be proved wrong).
