Error #2032 with AIR app installation

When I was preparing the eSeminar I did this week on building AIR apps with Flash CS4, I played with the AIR SDK for the Badge installer. For the most part it worked very well. However, when tested on IIS with Win 7, I came across the error #2032. I was sure that the .air file was OK as I could install it if I double-clicked the file. The problem arose when I tried to install it via the badge.swf from an html page. After some research, I found that the solution to the problem was to set the .air MIME type for IIS to: application/vnd.adobe.air-application-installer-package+zip

So next time if you are faced with this error, give this a try. It worked for me.
