Httrack always checks quicky how the html file 'looks 
like'. If there are too many 'low characters' (for example, 
NULL characters, or most ascii < 32), the file is 
considered as 'binary'
This prevent the engine from scanning gif files, 
incorrectly tagged by bogus servers as 'text/html'.

The ceil might be too strict, however - can you give the 
bogus URL?
