I can confirm that this happens to me with the ati.com site.

But I can't easily find any othersite with rpm packages that does
causes this to happen.
For example the rpm links at www.gurulabs.com/downloads.html do not
cause helix to start. So the question is, is ati's site doing
something to suggest the wrong mime-type?
You might need to inform ati to reconfigure their server.
