The issue *appears* to be the file ending (because clicking on a .pdf 
file DOES work in IE7 AFAIK) so one solution to my particular problem 
would be to write out a temporary file with a .pdf ending and direct the 
user to that.

My issue is not that it won't load it, but that Windows XP won't even 
open it, due to the lack of .pdf file ending.

I was just hoping to find a more elegant solution.

Thanks,
Hershel
