I'm using beta2 now. I can't upload .xls document. Why this kind of filetype is unsupported?

I think I know why this might be, I just need one more bit of information - what web browser are you using?

Firefox 3.0.4

But the file plugin page doesn't contain the MS Excel file format. just the Word and Ppt.
