Well, I'm no big expert on HTTP server configuration either.
(And my experience is with Apache only,  where configuration
often seems like black magic.)

Before deciding that everything works fine, be sure to check
what happens  when you use Netscape.  As I mentioned before,
IE tends to give lip-service to the standards, and so it's a
poor judge of what's correct. If things work correctly using
NS, then  the default server configuration is probably fine.
But as Scott mentioned earlier, for certain less common file
types, you may need  to add an entry into some configuration
file.
