Well, that's tougher in this case because they make you go through a
click-through popup that doesn't give you a link to right click on.

Yes, I wouldn't say nasty things to them as thanks for making the
software freely (as in beer) available.  But perhaps someone that uses
it could ask their webmaster nicely to configure the web server to
return a more appropriate content-type?  There's that old saying about
catching more flies with honey than vinegar... (Though I prefer to
stay away from flies so it doesn't mean much to me. :)
