[thelist] problems downloading with IE4

have a client hosted at an ATT site... it's a *nix server running 
Apache (Netcraft is down right now, so i can't tell you specific 
versions)...

had a problem getting FormMail up and running there, and then it 
suddenly worked just fine (10 minutes before their tech support 
email saying it was working fine, i suspect somebody flipped the 
'do not work' toggle)...

anyway, supposedly nothing was changed on the server, but 
immediately after the script started working, users of IE4 on 
windows (any) have been unable to download a file (a PowerPoint 
doc)...  all other browsers have no problem with it... i've messed 
with the security and HTTP settings, but nothing...

the message the browser gives happens 1.48MB to 1.54MB into 
the download, and it says that it cannot copy the file or cannot find 
the file...

i'd like to avoid posting the URL to the file... users are *supposed* 
to register for it, and discretion is always preferred as opposed to 
having the URL hanging out in the archives...
