I realize your question has already been answered - and for the record, I like Ben Nadel's solution to this very much - but I have a related question for you. If you're serving files in your web root, why are you bothering to use CFCONTENT to serve them? Just serve a link to the file in question, and let the web server do the work. If there's some business reason why you don't want to do that, you probably shouldn't store the files in a web-accessible directory.
