To Mozilla, and to Apache, visiting http://localhost/ is no different 
than
visiting any other host.  Apache serves the file, Mozilla downloads the 
file.
If instead of visiting http://... you pointed your browser to c:\... I 
imagine
(I have not confirmed this) that the file would be sent straight to 
your helper
application.
