Sorry about that I've added the filename as a parameter to the script
(page.asp?file=image.jpgw) in order to get IE to look at the correct
extension instead of just the mime-type. I looked at both of the
articles you linked to and they don't address the main problem I'm
having which is getting the "Save As Type" drop down in the "Save As"
box to show the option that I want, which is All Types or anything
that will keep IE from adding an extension to my filename.

Thanks for the links,
Nate Baxley
