Hi

Firefox 2.0.0.3 and F7

I really would like to know who or what decides how
the mime type to plugin/application mapping is determined.

The plugins themselves register with the browser the MIME types they
support. Look up the URL "about:plugins" in Firefox.

2. If a mime type is supported by more than one plugin/application
   how is the download action table determined ?

3. Is there a secret way of changing the association as the
   FF Change Action GUI does not appear to give you this option ?

Perhaps you can override some of the behaviour in "about:config".
