Comment 1 Gustavo Noronha (kov) 2009-03-22 14:20:19 UTC 
This may be caused by the fact that the server sends 2 different Content-Type headers:

wget -S -O /dev/null 'http://lhv.delfi.ee/news/index.cfm?id=1146314'

Probably a limitation in Soup, or a bug in WebKit. May be related to the problems me and Xan were noticing where on some download sites Epiphany would try to download an HTML file that leads to the file. I'll take a look.

I provided a patch there.

This is now fixed in WebKit: http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/41975.
