Update. I've found something interesting out.
If I attempt to download a file (say, http://www.example.com/mywebapp/images/x.jpg) without any security constraint in the web.xml file, I can correctly get the filename to show up in the save as drop down for both IE and Mozilla (right-click on picture, save as...). If I use a security constraint; <security-constraint> <web-resource-collection> <web-resource-name>Mywebapp</web-resource-name> <url-pattern>/images/x.jpg</url-pattern> <http-method>GET</http-method> </web-resource-collection> <auth-constraint> <role-name>user</role-name> </auth-constraint> <user-data-constraint> <transport-guarantee>NONE</transport-guarantee> </user-data-constraint> </security-constraint> then right-click on the image, IE will display the image as untitled.bmp, even though the image IS being displayed in the browser. Why would the change in the security policy cause this to happen? Am I setting the security-constraint correctly? Thanks for any help you guys can offer.

I finally noticed that IE6 is converting the dot (".") in file.jpg to an underscore ("_"). Has anyone experienced this very odd behaviour before? I should point out that I am sending the file back to the client via a servlet, the process being. Load file into memory (as bytes) and close fileinputstream Get mimetype of file Set responses mimetype Set response content-disposition (header) to attachment and filename=file.jpg Get response OutputStream Write loaded file (bytes) to outputstream Flush and close outputstream I can post the exact code if needed. I'm running Tomcat 4.1.30.
