AFAIK it's a server misconfiguration. I had a similiar problem here when I 
put some ogg files on my server. In the apache config I added ogg to the 
mp3 ID (you know, to give them an icon).. and all ogg's that were 
downloaded were seen as mp3's, and renamed that way too. With the iso's I 
think they are identified as binaries, and maybe on M$ servers thay are 
given the extention of .exe.

I could be wrong about this, but when I removed ogg from the config here, 
apache didn't know what file it was and didn't identify it as anything, and 
they got downloaded as .ogg ;-)
