Under Ubuntu 10.04 and I installed firefox 8 from ubuntu update channel. I am now unable to access sites with web pages in files .aspx. An example is www.morningstar.it with a default.aspx page. How can I overcome this?
This only happens when firefox come to an aspx page. I just get a window pop up with the message "You have chosen to open default.aspx. What should firefox do with this file?"

That can be caused by website servers that do not recognize your Ubuntu branded user agent.
- Mozilla/5.0 (Ubuntu; X11; Linux i686; rv:8.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/8.0
You can try to remove that part with the user agent switcher extension.

Remember to update the user agent if Firefox gets updated to reflect the new version.
