Sure, but if not everyone who wants plucker (or bittorrent)
will read this email. Not everyone who wants to try
plucker is willing to download and install another
multi-megabyte program first, let alone two of them.
And to be honest -- that might not be the problem. IE
may be set (perhaps even by default) to ignore MIME
types and use file extensions, at least for "unreliable
MIME types". (I know Opera allows that setting,
because of all the web servers that don't set MIME
types correctly.)

Have you considered reactivating the sourceforge
project, and just leaving the front page with a big
note saying something like
current development (including snapshots
and bug reports) happens at www.plkr.org;
the sourceforge site is best for downloading
the current stable release.
They do have at least some ad support, and a
plucker release may not even count as a spike
for them.
