Sorry, Here's the code line I used:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename="+archive);

Subject: Re: How to specify a name for a content beeing served by s servlet
I found this resource:
http://ppewww.ph.gla.ac.uk/~flavell/www/content-type.html
I've seen people say they use the Content-disposition header to get around
this issue but I haven't needed to do this yet...
Example:
Content-disposition: attachment; filename="file2.gif"
