can't remember exactly which one it is, but it is for one of the 2
reasons (or both of them):
1) your web server does not have the mime type defined for this file type
2) your browser sends incorrect mime type data with the upload

if you do have Office 2007 installed on the computer you are uploading
from, but still see this error, then it is reason #1...

Try getting rid of the accept clause on the cffile and see what happens

accept = Limits the MIME types to accept.

Then upload the problem file types and if successful immediately after the cffile tag check the values of

contentSubType MIME content subtype of the saved file
contentType MIME content type of the saved file

add that to your accept list if you actually need to have an accept restriction
