In addition to that, the web server configuration can make a difference too. The runrev.com webserver is returning a text/plain mime type to the browser, which is bound to confuse more than just Internet Explorer. # curl --head http://www.runrev.com/revolution/downloads/distributions/2.0/ revolutionosx.dmg HTTP/1.1 200 OK ...[headers cut]... Content-Type: text/plain On the Apache server, I would recommend the following configuration AddType application/octet-stream dmg Usually you can just put that into a .htaccess file in your web folder. That mime type will cause most if not all browsers to treat it as a file to download instead of displaying it. I just checked on some Apple.com downloads on akamai.net and they are using application/octet-stream as well. Alex Rice, Software Developer Architectural Research Consultants, Inc.

Re: Trouble downloading OS X version-FTP works
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, that didn't work either. The good news, however, is that the hyperlink to the FTP site now works once again, so it was a simple matter to download the .dmg file.
