Reading binary files is problematic cross-browser.  In Firefox, we can 
override the mime-type to "text/plain; charset=x-user-defined" and parse 
a byte at a time, but this doesn't work in IE.

I'd be happy to be told otherwise, but I think the answer is use known 
character sets with browsers (not binary files).
