The way to tell the browser that is to send "Content-type: text/plain" instead of "Content-type: text/html". Unfortunately, Microsoft for some reason intentionally includes a bug in IE that causes it to ignore the content type when it's text/plain, assuming that it knows better than the server does what type of file the server is sending. There's no real solution, other than to tell people to get rid of IE and use a browser that follows standards.
