That isn't silly, it corresponds exactly with the description you can find at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/networking/moniker/overview/appendix_a.asp
There term silly seems much more suitable for that, btw.
Btw., it shows that changing the extension to .csv won't help until
one has registered an application for .csv-files in windows.
And in fact, the "spreadsheet"-link showed up in my IE, no download window
came up...
