I did install File::MimeInfo (was a tricky thing to install, might I add. lol) and it does half-sorta work.

I have a test image and a test pdf file in the DB just to see if they load.

The image loads perfectly. It loads as script.pl?download=8 and when you right click it, you can't see the original source and you can't view the page source. AWESOME!!

However, when loading the PDF file it doesn't work at all. It says: 

File Download...

Filename: accessfiles.pl
File type: Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX
From: domain

[download]
I can't download it because it's a .pl file but it won't load either. Any suggestions?
