Mmmm, pizza. 
I don't know how someone is able to say what sexual preferences a program has, but that aside... Midi files open with the media player embedded in IE, right? I think I've found a solution to it, but you'll need an extra tool called Tweak UI. You can download it here. The dowload link is somewhere in the bar to the right.

I don't know about the interface in the XP version, but you know the drill. Go to the IE-tab and deselect "shell enhancements". I turned it off, and when clicking on your link I was asked to save the file on disk, or to open it. This comes closest to what you want for what I can see now.

Note: Use Tweak UI at your own risk. It may have potential to screw up your system and it's not officially supported by Microsoft.

Note 2: You might even try enabling browser extensions again, though I'm not sure about that one.

Note 3, keep 'em coming: It'll disable the option "As web page" in the "view" menu of Windows Explorer.
