I think you mean IE here.

BTW: The headers are:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2000 05:20:58 GMT
Server: NetPresenz/4.1
Content-Type: application/octet-stream

A normal one looks like (from Uli's FreeCard page):

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Notice the Content-type: header. Your server says it's a binary for
downloading, while Uli's says it's a webpage. iCab won't display it
either.
