Hi all, 
I have a PDF posted on a website with 3 links at the bottom:
1 to open the DWG file, 1 to open the DXF file and 1 to copy the cad file.

Here's the deal: I cannot assume that all customers, users, etc. will have CAD viewers 
installed on their machines. When the user clicks on the dwg file internet explorer 
brings up the file download box asking the user what they want to do with the file.
When I click on the DXF file i do not get the file download box, instead I get a 
webpage with source code.
I've tried adding the dxf file extension in the control panel and also adjusting my 
browser setting and I cannot get this to work. 
I need the file download box to come up when clicking on the dxf file. I'm using 
windows 2000. I noticed that on a windows 98 machine the download box DOES come up for 
the dxf file. However, I need this box to come up for all windows versions...
When adding the dxf file to the file extensions in the control panel I also tried 
checking the box that says "confirm after download" and it still doesn't work.
Any ideas?

Here's what I get when I click on the dxf file button...it takes me to a web page and 
displays this: (i didn't copy all that it displayed...its long). I need the file 
download box to appear not this....help please!
