It's likely IE decompresses the file for you, but it leaves the same
name to the file and later the tool that you use to extract it doesn't
recognize it anymore since it thinks it should be a gzipped file (.gz)
but it's a plain tar file instead.
Either extract the file with:
tar xvf mono-snapshot-...
or try to rename the file to mono-snapshot-....tar, or compress it again
with gzip etc.
