There's so many other apps that use http, and so many apps that are built on IE7 (and cannot be distinguished from it by user agent) including Microsoft Office, OpenOffice, and many others... the user-agent whitelist guff is pure misdirection. BT and Phorm will know this if they have been developing this garbage for 2 years or more.

As for mime type, I haven't seen anything on their sites that mentions a mime type whitelist...
