New submission from Alexander Maksimenko <alex.mclan...@gmail.com>:

mimetypes.py(249) expectts Unicode*En*codeError, but Unicode*De*codeError 
happens when registry has non latin symbols (Vista Home 64).

I just change cathc jn next line to UnicodeDecodeError and all now works fine. 
But may be error not here, but on encode method which raise "negative" exception


F:\>c:\python27\python -m SimpleHTTPServer
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test.py", line 2, in <module>
