Bug Description

Many ISO images, such as the Windows Vista and Windows 7 installation DVD ISOs, contain all their real data on a UDF filesystem. They contain a dummy ISO9660 filesystem with a text file to inform the user that they need to access the UDF filesystem instead.
Furius ISO Mount simply mounts the dummy ISO9660 filesystem instead of the real UDF filesystem.

The workaround in the meantime is to mount it from the command line with the type set to UDF, eg:
sudo mount /home/user/win7.iso /mnt/win7 -t udf -o loop

This has been tried with Ubuntu 9.10 and mounts UDF systems correctly
