We are looking to capture downloads in the ftp and http schemes.

Of course we want Mozilla to be able to handle all html files and
anything else the browser is equiped to display. The current list of
mime types for Gozilla to capture is:

application/octet-stream
application/exe
application/x-exe
application/x-unknown-type
application/unknown-type
application/unknown
application/self-extracting
application/zip
application/x-zip-compressed
application/x-compressed
application/x-compress
application/x-msdownload
application/x-gzip
application/x-gtar
application/x-tar
application/x-rar
application/x-ccf-content
application/x-dmp
application/mac-binhex40
audio/mpeg
audio/x-mpeg
application/x-msdos-program

If the content type doesn't match any of those we check the file
extension for one of the following:

 EXE ZIP DMP CCF RAR Z GZ GZIP TAR MP3 MPG MPEG AVI MOV ARJ LZH BIN
SIT HQX
