Firefox doesn't view ASP files.  Neither does IE.  Web browsers are clients, 
not servers, and ASP stands for Active Server Pages.  In other words, they 
run on the web server, and which translates them into (X)HTML, which then 
gets sent to a browser.  ASP is a microsoft thing, and not all that great 
either; PHP is a more popular equivalent that's popular on both Linux/Unix 
and Windows too.
