Re: [IE] IE7 corrupting ZIP files. Firefox does not.

I did not have any issues with that .zip file or any other ones.

Using IE 7 under Vista RC2.

Forgot to mention:

IE7 = XP SP2
IE6 = W2K SP4

I had a hunch the ZIPs will download correctly with IE7, yet I'm trying to figure out why these 2 PCs here at work are corrupting the downloads. Doesn't make sense because the file sizes (down to the byte level) match between downloading from IE7, IE6, and Firefox..

IE7 XPSP2 showed a zip icon (file xxx_Utility_v41.zip) but the zip file gave an error trying to open:

End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a Zip file, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part Zip file.

Downloading with Fx 2.0.0.1 I was able to open the zip file and read the pdf file inside.
