MORE INFORMATIONYou must use an ASX file to prevent your content being downloaded. When you install NetShow Server, the MIME types settings for .ASF and .ASX files are set automatically on the Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS). To set MIME type for non-Microsoft HTTP servers, you must add the following MIME settings (refer to your HTTP server documentation). Afterwards, you may need to restart the HTTP server. The generic settings are:
MIME type: video/x-ms-asf Extensions: asf,asxBelow is a Regedit file you can use to register the mime type on a Microsoft Windows NT and IIS server. You will need to stop all of the services in the Internet Service Manager at the same time and restart them for the following registry changes to take effect. WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system-wide problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use this tool at your own risk.
