Hi All,
I have IIS5 running on an W2KAS server with 2CPU and 2Gig of RAM.
It is uptodate with service packs and hot fixes

Basically I have a large (580MB) .exe file that I want people to download, however regardless who connects it takes a few minutes for the 'save / open / cancel' dialog to appear. Then if you click save it just saves a 0Kb file and stops.

If I change the extension of the file to something else (like .de) it all works fine.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

V

Please make sure that the directory which stores this file has no
Execution option enabled in IIS MMC.
