Tim, Wiley -

This will help. Windows needs the "lnk" extension on the tiny binary file it saves. Either add Tim's header, or map the Servlet to /FileServlet/* and making a request like: /FileServlet/test.lnk

Otherwise it looks like you're on the right track since "L" is the first byte header of a lnk file.

Slightly off topic to your thread. Can't help with your immediate problem
but FWIW;

You can give IE a default file name to Save As other than the your servlet
name,
using the filename= parameter in your response header.

Content-Type = application/download
Content-Disposition = attachment; filename=test.lnk

There also a KB ticket (applies to IE5.5 SP1);
