Thanks for responding.

I've updated from version 1.5.8, so this shouldn't be it.

I've tried to add, just to test this, to "LocalSettings.php" the  
following:

1. "$wgMimeDetectorCommand = "file -bi";" -- tested this. Didn't work.
2. Lines like:
$wgFileExtensions[] = 'pdf';
$wgFileExtensions[] = 'jpg';
$wgFileExtensions[] = 'png';

This didn't work either. BTW, I did not have a list of allowed  
extensions in my LocalSettings.php. The problem seems to be somewhere  
else, anyway.
