I'm not sure if they still use it but a site I redid for a company many moons ago in Perl had Apache set to treat .htm files as CGI scripts so we didn't have to change the previous, static site's URL's.

The original site ran on IIS and was old enough that MS software at the time still used three letter extensions for backwards compatibility, around 1997-1998 IIRC.
