I suppose this is due to a known problem with IIS servers: IIS servers don't serve unknown MIME types. If you have administration rights on your server you can create the missing MIME type (text/xml) for the .graphml file extensions as described here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326965/EN-US.

If not, you can simply rename the file extension to .xml or .txt - the GraphMLViewer doesn't care about file extensions.
