There's probably nothing wrong with the contents of the file itself - What
you need to do is configure (or have someone configure) your server to
send the proper MIME type of application/xml for .xml files.
I noticed when looking at the HTTP headers that the page is being served by
IIS on Windows; if it were Apache, I could tell you how to do the above. But
I don't know IIS, so I can't help you there.
