apsx files?

I downloaded google earth so I could try the live flight tracking here:

http://www.aeroseek.com/webtrax/fboweb.html

However, when I click on the google earth link, I get a pop-up from firefox asking me how do I want to open the aspx file (default is aspxfile). It opens in notepad and looks like an xml file. Same thing happens with IE6.x.

It turns out I have an association in the registry for asp and aspx files so they open with notepad, but according to what I found on the web, these files should be converted to html on the server side and just open in the browser. I'm sure I can open common asp files in both browsers and they just work.

I saved the xml to a file (tried both x.html and x.xml) and opened it with IE, and it still didn't work.

Any idea what's wrong? I was able to click on other Google Earth content on the download page and it worked ok.

Thanks,
David
